    HEATHEN, It was the height of the frame rails 4'', but I had to raise the body 1'' to try to get the grille shell and Cowl to be on a level.I didn't want the Grille shell in front of the x-memeber.I also didn't want to chop up my expensive radiator!!!!:D

    Looks great! I love it without the chop- kinda makes me wish I would have left mine unchopped and channeled it. I'm 6'6' though, so I don't know about channeling mine. Keep up the good work- I really like your stance/combination of parts/etc...

    Chris,No not yet!SORRY, I think I need you to come over here to give me a hand, then I reckon it'd get done in record time!
    Yes I do NEED a Roadster, but it'll just have to wait for a bit longer.I'll just keep up with your build and dream of the day!:)

    Very nice work, well done. Personally I think it looks good unchopped! Got any pictures from when you did the channel job??? Or when it was an inch lower? (before the radiator issues!)
