Got my digital camera hooked up so here goes...... Oh the last one is what happens when you reverse without looking where your going!
This must be fenders' fault! The only way to get through this accident can be throwing far away those fenders!
great project, start by getting rid of the fender as an example to the other one, its ok i put my plymouth into the garage refrigerator, i swore i was in reverse...
My plans ?? Well I've had it for nearly three years now, it hasn't changed much apart from a change of wheel colour, removal of the bumpers and a B banger. I don't like fenderless A coupes much and I like the full fendered look anyway. It certainly won't be channeled. I didn't want to chop it either, that was until I saw Fordy6's and now I'm very tempted but it would be very mild wouldn't want to over chop it. Its still running mechanical brakes and 3'' wide crossplys. Fantastic.
I think "over chopped" is like "going too fast." It's more of a theoretical concept than a real-world thing. You know -- like the last digit of PI in a black hole, or some such ****. I guess welding the top of the winshield frame to the cowl would be approaching "over chopped," but you'd be an E-bay trend setter for sure.
Ok, maybe that came out wrong! It is nearly impossible to over chop a early Ford rod, the same is not true for Kustoms. My personnel opinion but there are an awful lot of over chopped kustoms out there.....
Don't let these hot rod hooligans rile you up. There's nothing wrong with leaving the proportions alone. Matter of fact, I find that I enjoy seeing old fords that have been mildly hot rodded, but generally left original. There's nothing wrong with a little al***ude. (see my avatar).
Lucky, Great photoshop skills.. looks almost un-touched!!! Tingler.... thank you for your support...hahaha... Everyone is hell-bent on severe chops these days... I will keep mine un-chopped. If you ask me (which nobody has), fendered cars look cool with stock lids or a very mild chop. Fenderless cars look much better chopped. Perhaps it is my old age speaking (30), or maybe my al***ude (6'4"), but I enjoy my headroom. Don't be rash deciding. Very cool car by the way.
