Looking awesome Sam.....

....now I wish I'd slanted my B pillars..... that looks good.....

 

yeah hella solid. nice

 

Keep it up, man... Looking great and I can't wait to see the final product!

Malcolm

 

Sam, you got a good eye. you thought of a color yet

 

Sam just brought the value of 4-doors up...

 

Is it for sale yet?

Nice work.... as usual. Look forward to seeing the finished product.

Ok so be serious. You took these pics along the course of this build which actually took you a year. Now you're just posting them every few days creating the illusion that you work this fast. Right?

Wow man, perfect door gaps and a really nice roof line. And I don't like these Chevys!

Keep it up.

 

haha ! man,, i wish it was done already...

in all seriousness,though,,i have just been really excited to get home after work everyday and work on this thing, i really havent been thrashing on it,,just an average of about 2 hours a night,which doesnt sound like a lot,but it all adds up quickly
as soon as the roof and a few other odds and ends on the body are done,,i will probably slow down on it for a while..

 

Nice.Do you have any plans for other custom mods?

 

How did I miss this earlier?

Great work Sam. I'n not usually a fan of "4 to 2 door" conversions but rarely are they done this nicely. Most are hack jobs buried in Bondo.

You've taken a nice car & turned it into a kick ass custom. I love it.

Bravo! You make it look so easy... very nice.

I also think it's amazing that you're able to take pictures at the exact same time everyday! (According to the clock on the shop wall)

 

That's some really clean work!

 

Yeah, he told me it's going to be Robin's Egg blue with a White top...

Looks great Sam! Somehow, I thought you were going to keep this one a 4dr cause it was so nice... Glad I was wrong.

Inspiring work and volume of work....

 

HA!!!!

....the clock...... it always says 4:20 !!!! LOL!!!

 

Hey man, That Chevys looking good, Keep it up.

Cooter

 

4:20! haha,only a few have ever got that,,,haha,,NO! i dont smoke pot,,but i did along time ago!

Boones,,,color? ,,what else,,but brandywine metallic!...well,,i am kinda leaning that way..

00MACK,,,i'm not planning any crazy mods,,other than a shaving,frenching stock hdlmp rings,nosing decking..i would LOVE a 50 CADDY (60series) grill,but thats just a thought,,have a 54(?) ford front bumper to mount in the rear,,thinking of panckacking the trunk lid,,,borderline on it...

KILLROY,actually when i first bought the car,,i was thinking of building a BOMBA outta it and doing it robins egge blue and white,,but alot of the 4dr specific trim was either dinged up or hand sand scratches all over it and i didint want to mess with finding all of that stuff,,

 

Yeah...I can never figure out if pancaking the trunk needs to be done on a 51 or 2.That shoebox we chopped in my mothers back yard in my thread titled,My favorite shoebox has a 50 Cad grille bar that my buddy Joe screwed some teeth to just messin around cause the bar was shot.

 

tough looking car , great fabrication job

 

update:


I finally got the back window metal work done.
had to do a lil hammering and massasing in the C pillar crown area(tried to avoid doing that,but whatta ya gonna do..I dont have an english wheel) ..I also removed the entire crown over the rear window

after a few tries I finally got it were I am happy with it.

I still have a bunch of lil things to finish up on the chop...lil by lil
(oh yeah..had to patch the area above the left rear wheel well,it had a lil rust there,but that is the only bit of rust I have found on the car so far...)

 

Looking good, and nice camaro.

 

right i was just thinkin... thats a butternut yellow camaro. the 52 is kick a$$. r u gonna change the tail lights?

 

looks great sam ,b piller is killer and the back window looks perfect ! man you missed agreat show today, i 'll fill you in monday

 

Very Nice. Well done. Whats the plan for the motor?

 

that chop flows really well...
and the 4 door conversion kicks ass too

 

A very sweet profile.

 

Lookin great Sam. I really have had a hard time liking these chopped, I guess its cuz most guys hammer them way down. But between yours and Flops Pontiac, they are really starting to grow on me. Way to go.

 

Fucking awesome. Super work.

 

Very very nice ! I would have loved to start on a car that solid ,I got burnt out patching my pos 50 ,it was also a 4 door .

 

nice work i just bought a 51 2 door hard top ..... love the body style. keep up the good work......

 

great work.
