    We to brother Neil's ( Subneil56)house for the weekend. Decided to chop the hell out of his Model A build. Took only a few minutes to figure out we wanted to cut it hard. Thought I'd share a few pics. Stay tune for more pics on the Thread he's already started.

    First I wrote a comment then thought about how I promised God I would quit pissing people off and deleted it. Good luck with the project.

    I like the heavy chop.. Makes it easier to wax the top...

  18. Head to toe is one thing,
    head to ass / ass to toe is another.

    My sister in law is 4-9" and she can't see out of most windshields either. Blocks on the pedals can be better than knees in the armpits though.

    I'm 5 10 have pretty much the same chop and can see fine. It's all about lining up your vision An inch off makes a difference. The car is as they say " badass". Great job !!!!!!!!

  24. Love radical chops, go hard, or go home.
    Guess only being 5,7 helps a little.
