DUDE.... It will take an hour to fix it and make it CORRECT now or you can fight with it till you sell the car. Read my signature line. Just my opinion.
Dude relax. Are you in a fight with your car? Did your car win? Its all good nice signature line Thanks bro!
nice work man, been frenching the lights on my 53 the last couple of days cant wait to hack the top off mine.
Am I all alone in wondering why you would chop the top before you make the body straight? Do you plan to make this Chevy a nice shiny custom? The chop flows pretty well. But when I see the unlowered, rusty body, I dunno, it strikes me oddly... Since we looked at the work, how 'bout telling us what it'll look like when you finish?
man some of you guys makes this stuff look easy. Wish i had the guts to hack at mine. Nice chop. looks really good.
Got a chance to hang out with elvi411 tonight and got a close up of this chop they have done an amazing Job!!
It will be shiny black just give me 60 days. The car is on blocks. Mustang 2 and 4 link in the back finished with a large v8 runs and drives. All i need to do is finish the airbags. Its only surface rust under the trim. I do all the metal work first then body work and paint top to bottom how do you do it? chill phil
The glass fits, how are the b pillars fucked up internet genius? I live in Canada of course i need side glass it keeps the snow out. lol
UMM??? well GENIUS if the pillars are slanted back ward then the glass cant go down, im sorry i guess i should of asked so since the b pillar's are all fucked up is your glass not going to move??
I'm partial to Molson Ice, but that's mostly because buying it helps keep my paycheck coming... I like the chop, looks like the car's gonna turn out real nice.
Id love readin posts like a DIY chop all day long! Chili Phil, since you seem to have all the answers on "how to", how come that Olds you have hasn't gotten any better in years? Dude, kickass work, I will say with the quality of your work you will hate teh b pillar later, its noticable in pics, hope you consider fixing it before paint. Keep the posts coming, the proportions on this chop really rock. Going to be an insane custom man!
Beer? My guess too much lol. The work is nicely done But that B pillar is gonna be a bitch with the windows
brain lube and metal tools do not always mix well... looks nice, never woulda thought it, but i dig the look... but without the glass movin, its like a slinkey, usless but fun to watch
The b pilars in the new pics are straight i brought them back. The glass is larger in the bottom, and taper up in the stock position. With the fish eye lens the car may be stretched in the pics. I built my whole car from reading the hamb. Thanks all for posting! Sorry for posting Southpark, you truly are a genius i wish i had your job.lol I will post in May, with the car fully finished with working side windows later haters lol
so... you made a post with a screwed up image link late last night... why delete it? its may, and i'd like to see what you did
You might be alone! building a custom I like to start with the big parts first. then do all the finish work at one time. makes more sense to me.
Looks great! My son and I are going to be chopping his 53 , hopefully this winter when it is nice out here. Thanks for the pics.
