    Not my car or photo, but this came to mind first when I saw this thread. The right stance can overcome just about anything, this thing is killer.

    Funny enough, the photo came from an old thread here where the owner was asking if he should chop it or not. Not sure if that ever happened but I want to say it did? I don't remember. It's killer either way.

    My vision is cycle fenders, channeled only enough to hide the frame.
    No chop, Thank You.
    There are a few around. They look perfect to me.
    I literally love A coupes. If they are cut down more that 3 inches, I keep moving.
    Perhaps because I had a childhood hanging out with stockers.

    My avatar is a flathead powered 28 and the Sport Coupe is a flathead powered 30 and neither chopped. I'm 6'3" and 240 so it's hard enough to get in and out of as it is. ark073.jpg sp1.jpeg

    This is an old pic of a stalled AV8 project waiting on others to be completed. Channeled the width of the A frame, Z'd 6" in the rear, rear fenders raised and mini tubbed, front fenders narrowed 3", running boards eliminated with one off rocker panels. No chop. The goal is to maximize the interior space and minimize the exterior without all the modifications being too obvious. Probably should have asked Moose for a tire and wheel re-do before posting this pic. Delete if you must.

    To me, the stance is purrrrfect. Does the front rub? What's the drivetrain? LOVE it.
