    we took all but 2 leaves out of the rear, stacked 2" & 3" blocks, & added air shocks to make this shitbox sit & drive.

    stance is killer. body lines are killer. kar is killer. so proud to be a part of this build.



    also, i know for a fact the owner of this kar i lurking this thread so from now on, all questions can be addressed to matty!

    yeah i just laid it down and hat to make filler pieces on the sides and rear.the back glass when laid down is not wide enough so i had to fill the gap close enough so i could use window glue to seal it with a weather strip.

    Wow that looks way cool !! I've got a '56 4-door Olds and I thought it might look dumb chopped, but I think this car might change my mind. Thanks for sharing this!
