    finally got moved into our new shop shorty after we finished up 4 linking the car and and doing the bag job. It was a lot more cutting then I though, but I think it turned out real nice. Definitely learned a bit. anyways I gotta drop the gas tank into the trunk floor and then I think I'll be done for a while, time to start something new

    Could you share the specs on the chop and any pics of the suspension setup??? My shoebox's roof got caved in in a tornado a few months ago and I am gonna chop it as it has to be fixed anyway.

    Thanks
    Eric

    Frank Palmer did the chop on it. I belive he took about 4.5" outta the front and about 5-5.5" from the rear. also moved the rear window in about 6". Ill post up the air set-up pretty soon. good luck on the chop man!
