    Nice work, how much chop ? 4" my guess. Got a link to your build thread ? I'm working on a 31

  3. Looks like you went with a wee bit of overhang with the body over the frame. I'm curious, did you cut the bottom out of the subrails and adjust the height with wood? Any details on that?
    Nice looking car. Kudos.

    4" chop.

    I cut the crap out of the front subrails. Cross braces flush with top of subrails.
    No wood, using modern body mounts.
    I boxed the bottom side of the subrails but it sat too low so I added 1/4" feet at body mount holes. The rear is a whole nother animal. I have a bit of a roll cage, that ended up being the subrails for the rear. I wanted a flat floor anyway.

    Build thread would be in my post history probably. If I get time I might update it, or maybe start a new one as that one was probably too in depth and pic heavy.
