  1. Thanks Rivet. I chopped the windshield about 4 1/4", not sure what the middle measures.

    Do you have a nice pic from the broadside?
    I'd like to get the profile of how the windscreen angle as well as the chopped top bows / roof looks.

    Killer '29.

    I have one that is almost perfect to me in every way.....except the the stock windscreen height and angle. ..
     
  14. @ A Rodder: I don't have a good broadside picture, but I will take one and post it for you. Also, I can get the angle of how far my windscreen posts are leaned back if you like.

    Very, very nice - love the windshield. I have the same level of chop on mine in my RPU and love the low and leaned back look. Great job on the car overall - it is beautiful.
     
  28. Thanks Guys! I appreciate the nice comments.
     
  29. Minor Update: I had some old school striping added to the '29. Here is a couple so shots of the deck lid, grille shell and hood
