    Well here’s my opinion which is worth nothing. Whatever tricks your trigger because it is your car.

    This blue coupe was featured in R&C, features a funky dropped axle, and resides on a late 20's Chev chassis

    Responsibility sucks. I had some unexpected expenses and the coupe was the only thing I could sell without losing a ton of $. So, down the road it went. I hope to have another someday as well.

    I agree they do look better channeled. I'm going to try my 29 coupe un-channeled, just to keep things simple, with a deuce frame set down to 6" ground clearance and some large diameter tires.

    I planned to chop this but once I drove it around in it’s original form I decided to leave it as is.

    Nope!..... and for me don’t channel it. A friend made some rolled panels to cover the frame from the body line down and it looked great.

    This is an old thread but didn't want to start a new one. Anymore pics? Really thinking of not chopping the body I just got because it's so clean.
