    Kirker hot rod black in satin finish is my next choice.....prob 16" 40 ford wheels, 40 standard hubcaps n trim rings, mohair original interior with original gauges and dash, either 34 steering wheel or a 37 banjo. Timeless look, never go out of style

    You could go with a flattening agent in the clear and achieve the correct sheen your looking for! The car looks insanely awesome!

    RK: I have chopped three '34 Ford's. One of my own and two for friends. I like your way a lot better!! I love having the original soft top opening and the way you did the sail panel and quarter window. Looks great! Tim

    Nice Chop! I've done a few cars over the years, but I must admit your process is very nice.

    Love the chop. Tried Hot Rod black on my '56 truck that didn't look right so used a flattener in the clear & it turned out perfect. A little dirty.

    Nice shape to that quarter window. It looks natural. Not squished.
