I'm just wondering if anyone on here has any pictures of a finished 40 merc coupe chop that the windshield is not raised and kept in the stock location....
Look on this thread. There may be a couple pictures before Kevin raised it. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/threads/the-mexicali-merc-another-40-custom-in-the-works.681319/
Here's a couple of examples. The one up front has not had the windshield raised. The rear car has had it raised 1 5/8".
Soft tops don't count because it's the size of the crown in the roof that creates the crown/windshield height ratio issue. And the heavier the chop the more important that ratio becomes in terms of balance and visual weight.
your welcome bro,if you ever come across a rear bench seat for a 40 merc coupe please let me know thanks again.ron
