how low is too low...(channeling)

haring,your right,it looked to cartoonish before. now that ive had a day or so to look at it ,i like it alot more.

i studied the grille and its 3 3/4 of the ground,which may seem alot to you city slicker folk,but living in the country its about all i can get away with,the pic i posted is actually a lil bit distorted,in real eyeball perspective its not noticeable,and flows.

anyways ,its just a pile of shit im trying to make into a hotrod.

Section it about 4".. It's too high... stand it up a bit too, You'll be glad you did

 

Assgasket, yes it viable, I built my roadster to be a unibody car.
No x members between the framerails, the bellypan is welded in and load bearing, and the driver sits between the framerail and a 11" tall driveshaft tunnel ( also load bearing ).

 

why don't more people go that route...??? too much work...??? I'd think that the floor space would be worth it...

 

I dont know. Yes, it is a shitload of work. Yes, it is worth it.

 

Dr.J, the only problem tho,is that i already sectioned the grill 4",it was WAY to tall before.

 

I'm with PakRat32, my A is channeled 6+ inches so the door almost sits on the running board. I kept going until the belt line matched the bed rail.

It is easier to get away with this and not look goofy when running fenders.
This old pic is all I have at work.
