I was just wondering what the stock roof height of a 31 Five window coupe was. I want to find out how far mine was chopped, back in the day.

Thanks all.

Oh yeah, here's a recent picture.

The door window height is 13 1/2 inches tall, and the back window is 10 inches tall. Dean

Your car rules...right up there with loudpedal's coupe. What radiator do you have in there and how big is it?

Lookin good! Lookin forward to seeing it on the road - are you going to have it running for the Cheaters show?

What axle is that - what's the drop?

I don't like it, the tires need to be at least taller that the roof for it to be cool.



Just kidding, that thing is all kinds of sexy!

There was strips of metal in that bunch of stuff that came out of the top. I'm thinking 4".

Thanks guys.

Grimlok, Thanks man. The radiator is a 65 mustang 3 row.... had it flipped upside down and flathead fittings brazed on.

I figured it was chopped around four inches, but wasn't certain.

The axle is a speedway re-pop. 4" drop.

The grill shell.... the rest is still on my steel rack. I might get lazy and get a brookville one, but I'm trying to do and make everything that I can on my own.

I'd like to have it done by the cheater show... I just finished my set of headers... I'm doing the sheetmetal on the floor now, and then its finish the steering , make a fuel line and wire it.
