Chopped 1951 Chevy Build!!

Here is my 1951 chevy. Plans are for a mild custom, but we will see what happens!!

Trying to upload more pictures but its not working right now

 

looks like a solid start!

 

A couple pics of the start on the chassis.

 

I like the side profile.

What are you going to do with the rear glass?

 

Nice looking chop so far

Looks like a great start and awesome side profile!

 

Nice, the profile looks good!

 

Thanks a lot guys!!

 

with a top chop, looks like a radical custom now.

 

Ya ur right. It is gonna be a radical custom.

 

Thanks man. Im gonna use the original rear glass

 

I dig the chop! I'm super picky they can easily make or break a car in my opinion and you nailed it

 

How are you going to do it?

I mean, are you going to move it up the hill farther into the roof panel itself, or sink it into the trunk, what's your plan there?

I'm always interested to see how different guys tackle this issue.

 

Hey Thanks Alot man!! I hear you on the make or break!

 

I had the chop where I tought I wanted it. Walk around the car looking at different angles for two days and kept seeing angles that I didnt like, so I cut the top free again after most welding was done and took a 1/2 inch out. Some people dont believe that a half inch will make a difference

 

Im gonna run it up, from the side profile the top of the rear glass will be straight across with the far back corner of the quarter glass. If that makes sence. il post pics soon

 

Iv been working on the sail panels and the door posts this week!!

 

Wonderful.

That's exactly what I'd been hoping to see on the back window.

Carry on.

 

Great project

 

Thanks man. Glad you like it!!

 

lookin good I molded piece under rear window to the top of trunk lid like the lead sled mercs waiting to see more pictures luv those chevys

 

That's a pretty rad build, what condition was the car in when you picked it up?

 

Can you post a few more pics of the frame work!! I am digging the lay out so far!!! Great chop to!! Gonna be a sweet custom!!!

Looks fantastic sir.

 

Thanks guys!!! Il be posting more pics soon

 

It was in nice condition. Floor is real nice. Body filler in a few spots but i dont think theres any cave and pave.

 

I have some more pics here soon of the metal work. After i get the chop done im gonna hit the chassis hard to get it a roller.

 

I got the back window where I wanted it today and started final welding. Lots of welding and grinding left but heres some progress

 

Killer Profile!!!

 

Makes me miss the one I had and couldn't keep....DAMN NICE JOB !!!!!
