    there's precious few cars that don't need a little off the top. nothing too severe. channel optional for your comfort--bit aestically I'm the channel the width of the rails camp.

  19. If your not sure what you want to do, make it a roadster, then you don't have to decide.

    Channel. No chop. Easy good simple trad look.
     
  28. Since I'm 6'5" and long-legged with bad knees, I vote for stock height sitting on top of the frame like King Henry V8 intended. These cars don't have ample leg room in stock form, and the windshield at stock height is only about 11" tall.

    Do something different - there are only about 10,000 chopped and channeled 5 windows out there. Make a rat rod out of it - everyone knows how much the HOKEY ASS MESSAGE BOARD loves rat rods. But if you don't chop it you're a pussy.

    Page through back issues of Rodder's journal, some of the nicest 32's I've seen are there.
    Some aren't cut at all and are beautiful. I guess I'd lean towards Black, fenders, and no cutting.
