Projects 4 door 50 merc...first chop

Here she is! We've done quite a bit this winter.

 

Yea, loading pics here can be tricky.... Nice job on the chop.

 

Thanks, i'm loving it so far.

 

Very nice work!

 

Great job on the chop.

Sent from my SM-G920V using H.A.M.B. mobile app

 

Very Kool, great job on the chop. Keep us posted on your progress.

 

Looking killer! Doing the chop (my first as well) on my '50 Chevy next year. Following along on your progress!

 

Thanks guys! Good luck, cant wait to see it!

 

finished the headlights and one door frame started. Bit by bit!

 

Smoooooth... and a 4 door to boot! You boys don't just rope a few, you get the herd.

I allow you boys 'ride for the brand'... (good ol' Western Praise)

 

Looks great! Did you use the Steadman video on a lot of that?

 

Best $40 i have ever spent! We only differed from it hear and there

 

I just finished watching it. Looking to start my '50 Sedan later this summer. Definitely made a lot of things clearer. I saw that you cut under the drip on the B pillar instead of through it like he did. I was thinking the same. Seems to be a better way.

 

It worked perfectly for us. We stayed a half inch below the drip and had zero issues. We did not have to stretch the metel or anything like that. Cut it and move it. Thats it

 

Makes sense. Thanks. Keep up the good work. Looks great! I'll be following along as you go.

 

As I have said before..
You chop guys totally amaze me
Really nice job...

 

Have you seen voodoo larry 4 door?

 

I have. Looks awesome.

 

Is the rear window still it's stock size? Also did you get the windshield cut? Great chop The car looks awesome!!!

 

Yes it is. We are going to fill in around and get rid of the rubber molding. As soon as i het the last window frame done, i will take it in to get cut. Thank you

 

Looks great. Not over chopped.
I can never understand why people leave that extra part of the rear door, where it pokes into the C pillar.

 

Some like having that wing in the rear. Personally, i couldn't wait to get rid of it

 

I'm not seeing what your talking about. I keep going back to the original pictures and I'm just not seeing it. Can you point it out for me Thanks

 

Look at voodoo larrys a couple posts ago. The rear window runs past the door seam and you have to have a wing window or a non functioning window

 

lfl, I'm sure James D is referring to VooDoo Larry's Merc.
Personally, I like them both ways.

Stock...

 

Thanks I see it now. I keep looking for a quarter window next to c pillar.

 

Looking good!!!!
