Who gives this thread 1 star with only an honest question and 1 picture of a VERY sexy Model A?! The system is busted! EDIT: OK not a question. But an honest request and a perfect example!
LOL I have the same problem with mine, gonna be tough to drive i think but i will have to spend alot of time putting in the seats For the record the window frame is not chopped for the chop on car yet...
Here's some pics of my model A. I bought the body from eternal31 here on the HAMB, and I'm not sure exactly how much it's chopped. I guess somewhere between 7 and 8 inches. The sideview is an old mock-up picture where the grill shell wasn't lowered/chopped yet.
When i was building the coupe i picked up a 3rd seat from a Dodge caravan because its narrow and reclines, you will still have to cut about 3-4 inches out of the seat to get it to fit the A interior, but you will be able to recline it and sit comfortably when you drive, im 5'11" and dont have any problems Ive been to the Roundup with it the past 6 years, ill be there this year also.
Not sure how much the chop was, thought it was 6", but looking at DreddyBear's it might be more than I thought.
Should also mention that 28/29's were a little taller in the side windows so 5 or 6 out of a 30/31 is like 7 or 8 out of a 28/29
man how do you people fit I chopped mine 4'' and my head comes with in an inch of the roof. Maybe I got too much padding in my seat.
