    Dennis McPhail did a great job with this years art work for the Kustom Kemps of America's Lead Sled Spectacular

    You don't see many split roof Shoebox chops.
    My old '50 was the only split-top Shoebox chop that I know of (though quite a bit different from yours...5" at the B-pillar, rearward taper, laid down back glass). But I'm quite sure I've never seen one that was also stretched!
    The profile/proportions are so subtle, and will be unique to the car.
    What are your design plans for the rest of the car?

    This vintage Kustom was originally used as a tow vehicle for a drag car.

    Is the front end pie-cut or something? Proportions look funny to me but I can't figure out why.
