    I think it's because the roof has a distinct forward rake...it's chopped more in front than out back.

  2. This Olds has been around for decades and is still as cool as it ever was. It's in the Swanx Car Club with seldom seen HAMBer @brewsir.
    I can't remember where I found this shot, but it is so cool. Nothing like rolling up on a chopped sled in traffic! E

    Actually, I think there is some distortion in the first photograph itself.
    As I remember, there is no bias to the chop. (Note second photo..)

    I really like the way the blue paint anchors the side trim to the rear wheel well.

    Wouldn’t it be nice to have National holiday and all Custom’s national wide would show up in one centralized location. In fact let’s just celebrate for a week and call it the National CCR on steroids. Hmmmm I wonder if Kevin Anderson would take it on. Lol. Jus thinkin.

    This is a kool example why I'm into kustoms. I wouldn't have imagine adding a '55 Chevy front clip on a '57 Chevy. This one really hurts my brain, it is so kool...
