HAHAHA!! I had my eyes on a shop and it was pretty much a done deal but my wife and i almost moved to San diego so i had to back out of it. Now that were staying in Burbank i might go back !!

^^^^^^

Thanx Micheal!!

Thanx so much, I'll definitely post the rest of this chop!!

[email protected]

thanks

 

wow beautiful chop job on the top

 

Hey Mark, I'll hit you up soon, If we do this i'm thinking beginning of the year. I only have a home garage for now so i can't and won't take more than 1 car at a time!! Thanx bro!!

Thanx CJ!!

 

This one turned out good, PROPS!!!

 

Thanx man!! I'm flattered.... You've been on since '08 and your first post is to compliment the chop!!

Thank you !!

Ian

 

It won't need 5 gallons of bondo to make it straight.

Damn good job sir.

 

Thanx Nads!! When i took my chevy to Jeff Myers she had so much bondo on her I was pretty bummed. But being new at this bondo thing i really didint know how to apply it correctly, so i ended up with way too much and Jeff took it all down where you could see metal everywhere. He spent 3 days mowing it down with 36g. I felt bad for Jeff, but i'm pretty stoked it's almost all off!! NOW THIS ONE!! It really won't need much and i'm pretty damn stoked!! Thanx again Nads!!

BTW....Jeff taught me how to apply filler the right way!!

 

Dude! You gotta' knock this shit off! You're makin' us look like a bunch of hacks!

For x-mas will you build me a '32 5-window body that's already chopped 5 or 6 inches and the roof filled?

 

HAHA!!

I wouldn't know how to chop a 32'! I could try but i wouldn't want to mess a good 32'

I gotta start doing more HOT ROD research. I'm totally consumed with customs!!

 

Wow awesome work, Wonder how i get my caddy in line for a little off the top.

 

I have faith! Besides, you wouldn't be chopping an original... you would be making it from SCRATCH!

I'll be by next week to pick it up. Is that good for you or do you need more time?

By the way, added a couple tags for you...

 

You rule bro!!
Love the tags......LOL!!

 

Dang Ian...that doesn't look like beginners luck. I agree with Jeff, I think you're in the car builder relocation program. You're standing out like a sore thumb. Good work though, looking just as good as your Chevy.

 

HAHA!! That's some funny shit!! Thanx so much!! I MIGHT be going back to Ark City when the upholstery is done!! I miss Kansas!!

Ian

 

Ian, you've got a true talent! I met with your homie Omar a few weeks back. I can't wait to see your chevy and Omar's shoebox in person!

Congrats!

 

Thanx so much man!! Omar's a nice guy!! The Chevy will be at MOONEYES and the ford should be done for Primer Nats!!

 

Great work. One of these days I will have the guts to try a chop.

 

Thanx man!! Just do it!!

1. study
2. measure
3. cut
4. fit
5. weld

I'm no pro, but these steps make sense to me.

 

right on ian-how's your car doing? you get it back yet?

 

Thanx Shooter!! The 51 is in Oklahoma getting upholstered . End of november she should be home. Jeff is gonna pick her up in OK. then do the finishing touches like door glass , windshield and rear window garnish, etc..... I couldn't have finished the 51' without Jeff. I learned a lot from him and I made a great friend!!

 

that car looks great... im really into chopped 50s cars and you sure do learn a lot from HAMB

 

That is some great flow right there!
