    Hey, I heard Hillary Clinto went on Leno to turn things around, but it didn't work--Leno's still not funny.

    Thanks for the replies but i'm starting to have second thoughts. Does anyone else have a good example of a deluxe business coupe chop? Thanks again.

    Bill Hines did that I think. The bat? Or something. Beautiful car, Jag suspension w/ stock column. Trick and I bet it rides like a dream.

    OK, thanks. I am not certain if I have a deluxe or standard coupe but it is definately a coupe with the long trunk lid area. I have seen good examples and bad examples of this chop in the past and I am trying to convince myself and my dad (who happens to like the stock look) that these cars can look nice with the right technique.

    the problem as i see it with these cars these days is too many people chop them too much to the point where they look bad.

    as for hardtops... I've seen way more fucked up no side glass hardtops than nice ones... I don't think that is a good mod for very many cars

    For the lazy folks like myself that don't like links. Here's a pic of Shoeze from this weekend at the eyes on design car show. I believe it place first in its class, congrats John! It's even more beautiful in person where you can see all the cool details on it.
