Hot Rods Radical Chops..Bonneville Chops...Low Lids

Radical chops aren't everyone's cup of tea. Some look out of proportion, but some are just incredibly cool. Post 'em folks for all to see. They don't have to be yours personally. All are welcome. Lets have some fun......Thanks, Don.

 

Always loved the work of @scrap metal 48.

 

2 of my favorite chops

 

@tdog 's Omaha Coupe is definitely a 'Bonneville Chop' -
Projects - Omaha Coupe 33 3w 9" chop, built in 1954 Salt, Drag, and Show | The H.A.M.B. (jalopyjournal.com)

 

Some of my personal favorites...

 

^^^Love the dropped and filled axle on this '34 3-window^^^

 

Another cool ride from @scrap metal 48.

 

The King, Big Al

 

^^^^Excellent, Ron^^^^..It doesn't get more RADICAL than "Big Al"!!

 

I've been told that mine is chopped too much. After 40 plus years they may have been right?

 

^^^^Looks perfect to me. Ron.^^^^

 

Looks about perfect to me.

Another one of my favorite chops. My friend, Jack's, Model A.......#908

 

The Sam Samson coupe, She Bad, Too.

 

Graduating in 1962, this is my idea of what real Hot Rod back in the day looked like. Love it.

 

26 T coupe in avitar has 7inch windscreen. Nothing like tunnel vision................

 

My pal @hotrodderhaag has the two cars that define the look. His white 32 and the Ken Schmidt built rolling bones 575 car now in his care.
