took some time off to build my own shop. i brought the coupe home from my dad's place so i can work on it at home now. i seem to get more done that way. now i can work on it when i get home from my job. i chopped the top 3 inches one weekend. so here are some pictures of that.
Looking good,but those tail lights look Big.Not bagging it,just an opinion. I like those engine mounts.
Nice job on the tail lights, perfect size for that panel. But I think just the outer two would have been more than enough (and using the fixtures with the back-up lights in the center). Sorry. But then again, you just may prove us all wrong when it's all said and done! Gary
two years of stagnation? who are you, me? also, on the tail lites, you may as well put one in the middle and be done.
yeah i have gotten a lot of flack over the taillights.you either love them or hate them. they are from a 70 camaro. they were sitting around so i figured i would try it out. i'm not set on using them yet. pretty easy to make another rear panel. any ideas? thanks for the comments.
added a flip top gas cap to the trunk lid. have to make a few adjustment's to it yet. also a couple more pics of the finished top chop.
Chop looks good man i started my model a coupe project over the weekend got the frame to my dads get some new per h bolts and i can slotthe front end in i u sure to chop mine though but yours looked easy well done
had some spare time during Christmas break so I did some work on the coupe again. I finished the patch panels on the driver's side and put all new hardware in the door. also finished the floor this week.
started patching the passenger side damage today. someone took after the quarter panel with a torch so I cut out the damaged area and made a new piece to patch in. I didn't finish welding it in yet. I will get that done this week and then start on the lower patch panels for the cowl and the quarter panel.
Yo what would it look like if you put some 59 caddy tail lights in the center of the one you have or mabe some crome bulletts in the center. hey you did ask if we had any ideas? I think you can make your original idea work if you get more creative with it. or use somthing pre 65. great job on the metal work looks great
I like the wheel ,trim ring and hubcap combination with the red color. Could you give more details on that. What color is the red ? Car is looking good.
I lost interest when I saw the tail lights, tilt column and steering wheel...... Everything else looks great!
