    Your thoughts?.......the chop was easy, regarding the channel? I had a good look this evening it appears a channel is going to take some work. Where to start?
     
  2. came out very well (and not at all rat rodderific...)

    I like the REALY low-profile tires on the utdoor shots.

    The chop looks just right. Way to go!

    What? Real Left Coast?
    Right Coast builders have been channeling cars since the beginning.

    Not much to see right now, just the rolling (running) ch***is with the cowl mounted.
    It's got an SBC in it right now but I am finishing up a BOP TH350
    to bolt up to my 400 Pontiac.
    The Honey-Do list was too long this summer to make much progress.

    Good evening

    I know this post really has nothing directly to do with building a hot rod however it does clearly explain why I haven't had the opportunity to continue with the build. This is High Prairie Alberta, it's turned cold, snow now on the ground, mid November, the rut has started and hunting it fantastic. Two weeks left ....Big bucks are down...

    Good evening Dirty2

    I do have a garage actually, the problem, it's full of deer hanging from the ceiling by their back legs.....Going to make Jerky to provide nourishment for those long cold winter nights when I'm out there working on the "Hot Rod"....
