    It's beautiful and definitely stands out from the rest (and not in a bad way!)

    I'd chop it and leave everything else alone. And if your worried about the nice paint job you can just paint the top of the cab where the bodyline starts.

    Since this thread seems to be a year old...did ya chop it? Or change anything else? What does it look like now?

    I remember the thread, but for some reason didn't vote at the time - sitting on the fence procrastinating as usual I guess :)
     
  5. I would leave it as is, just take those dumb cowl lights off hahah but leave the cowl band

    I chopped my A that was in good shape and I don't regret it one bit.

    Yours looks awesome as it is. I wouldn't chop yours if it was mine. Normally I wouldn't state my opinion since it's your car, but since you asked LEAVE IT AS IS!! :D

    Nice! Shouldn't you have waited until the snow started flying though? ;)
     
  17. I know this is an oldie. But are there any finished pics of this coupe? This full fendered A is exceptional! WOW!

    now thats irreversible.
     
  19. i'm bringing this back from the dead to see the finished product after having it painted. Sweet coupe
     
  20. I was going to suggest a 1.5" chop, but when I opened the thread and saw how nice the paint was... I wouldn't touch it! Just drive it :D

    EDIT:

    Now that I read through to the last page. I see that I am too late in my vote. Chop away! :)

    That car is amazing. The chop is freaking perfect. Love it.
     
  22. I think he made the right decision :)
     
  23. Leave it as it is. It looks great. Maybe some bumpers on it is all I would do.
