my chopped 52 chevy

im about 1 hour east of you

 

Build pictures coming soon. Here are a few more pics... You can view our club cars if you go to Myspace and search for Mad Greasers.

 

Outstanding!

 

I like the split windshield.

 

the trick to a 4-door converson chop is to stretch the whole top. cut the top horizonially from door to door. i cut my top in half and stretched it 4 inches

 

Well thought out look. My compliments. It takes a lot of work to get that kind of profile. I also love the 53 grille teeth. Keep us posted.

 

WOW! Nice freakin job.

 

i did cut rear wheel wells out. running a radial whitewall from coker, think its about 25 in tall. got a home built 2-link set up in the rear for the bags

 

well who said that 4drs can't be cool!!! lol jk it looks good!

 

Nice work...
Bring it here so I can see it in person!

Fine job!!! Looks pretty damn good to me.

 

Did you end up having to stretch the roof? I've seen a few GM 2 door posts with severe chops, but the roof line never quite flowed and most turn out to have a flat spot. Yours has a nice smooth flow.

very nice work man

 

Nice!

 

Nice job! But I have to ask, is that a cookie cutter for a shift knob? Are you a baker? Again great job and Thanks for sharing.

very bad ass

 

The Shifter looks like 4 big ass nuts to me.

 

Yep, that has a real nice shape to it. Well done!

 

its four big stainless nuts tacked tgether

 

yep i stretched the roof about 4 inches

 

Damn was I the only one to pick up on this?? Where did you water jet the glass....was it a 5 axis type machine? Did it come out clean or did you have to polish the edges after?

 

Definitely done right!!! Hope to see it around soon!

 

i lucked out on the water jet. theres a place about 5 miles from my house that does this. the guy can cut though steel 8 inches thick. he said the pressure is at about 80,000 pounds it the tip and the only chance the glass will break will be if he drops it! as for the edge after cutting there is a little fogging but my rubber coverd that up. as far cutting glass this is the way to go. he only charged me $50.00 bucks

 

Looks good, lets see some pics of the bag set up.

 

lookin good i have a 49 olds 4 door waiting for the same conversion, i hope you post it soon

 

Your car is beautiful! the lines and the stance are damn near perfect!

 

Matt your car is cool as hell bro. It was good to finally meet you and your car...

 

nice!

 

Perfectly gorgeous. Absolutely spot on design and proportions, one of the best ones I've ever seen.

You did good son.

 

Looks good!
I would relocate that exhaust pipe thou, just my opinion of course.
