    Looks good Elvi, we will be chopping the 53 in the avatar after the Bombs Away Bash next weekend. I like the flow.....I think the pillars are the best part though....LOL!!! I will wait until we are done to post any pics. I always love working in the shop with someone over my shoulder saying "WHAT YA ODDA DO"

    the chop looks like how it should of rolled out of the factory. great job. now to how everyone was freaking out about the pillard slanting back. there was a 49-51 merc in CK Deluxe( back when that mag kicked ass) that had slanted back and wider b pillards. it look good and it was out of the norm. keep the updates coming. great job.

    damn, give Elvi a break,,,,,,,,,,, nice work! as in all projects it takes tinkering, tuning and fine tuning.
     
  25. It looks good to me and Hell, I'm hard to please. Now finish it and go out and drive the friggin' wheels off of it.

  29. The 31/8's chop looks great for proportin. So many are overchopped and hard to drive sitting flat on the floor trying to look through the steering wheel...This car looks like a man could actualy get in it. Is it my eyes, or camera angle that makes the B pillars look like they lean toward the rear. I'm probably wrong. Cool car, and Canadians are very careful builders so no doubt this builder knows what he's doing.
