Hot Rods Better Pics of the finished 5 window build

Thatza Nize!
My chop is 4 1/2", and i need to redo the seat to be comfortable.

 

Tim, As far as I know all the early GM motors (mine is a 54) had the oil canister . The Caddy's were mounted on the drivers side attached to the water pump bolts. If you have an older motor with a canister filter and decide to use an aftermarket filter message me. That creates a whole other big issue. That's why I reverted back to the stock canister and modified the bracket. Hope this helps.............

 

Amen brother !
On the streets Monday thru Friday, at the race track on Saturday or Sunday..... your Coupe is sweet!

 

"This is what a 32 5 window should look like." Are you part of the aesthetics police?
Who are you to decide what a 32 anything should look like - good grief.

 

he did qualify it by writing "for me" i read it as his opinion.........i don't agree.......crap, now i am part of the aesthetic police

 

Just saw this thread. Thought I would chime in. I am not the biggest fan of '20's and '30's cars. But I would drive the wheels off this one if it were mine. Also, it's nice to see the brown primer. Almost left me car that way.

 

Very Nice!!!

 

Lotta chop, but the 1/4 windows retain a smooth transition on the curves- A+ job
Having driven cars that were chopped and raked , I'd say leave it as is; if the front end was lowered it would probably not be comfortable to drive. ( It would probably SUCK!) And the big and little wheel/tire combo catches your eye and
I think it sits real nice, Mr. "HC"- great job.
MY .02 cents worth ( and we all know what that's worth)

 

Just an awesome rod ! You have done a super job and you are the only one whose opinion really counts. Drive it like you built it !

 

I love it. Straight outa the 50's!

 

Nice car, I would love to own it!

 

Don't like the color of your engine stand!! Pete

 

Pete, You made me laugh Thanks

 

Oh Sh%t!! I forgot to say,I dig your car!!!! Pete

 

a little rake would completely change the look of the proportions.......but as it has already been stated many times..... your car, your money, your time, your way. Congrats on meeting your goals.
