Remember this little sedan? Well, the above is a sneak peek of sorts... Chop is complete. A subtle gentlema...<P><P>To read the rest of this blog entry from The Jalopy Journal, click here.
Great looking car, though I still like them with the full roof (although I am a bit biased ). Definitly has the right stance. Good luck, MRAK
Wow, the exhaust neatly takes care of the missing deuce rails! HA Seriously, it looks awesome, the proportion is nice!
the big and littles make the stance dead on. chop is just right without going overboard trying to make it look mean and look at how perfect that rear wheel lies within the wheel well. amazing.
It's amazing how it has side pipes (in a sense) yet doesn't conjure up images of a mullet. It's refreshing to see a sedan that isn't super hammered and its wheels in the wheel opening. Anyone else notice how the back of the headlight curve matches that of the tire? Too cool. slim
I had the extreme good luck to see this car in person when I was in Austin last weekend. The exhaust pipes are so well done I couldn't quit looking at them. The fit in and around the steering box is amazing. The talent it took, awe inspiring. It's almost a shame as I'm sure I missed some other fine points of the ride. Luckily Ryan pointed out the dead perfect chop. The seams are, well, seamless. I bet Henry himself would have a hard time finding where the work was done. Nice job and thanks to Kevin and Jill for getting out of bed so I could have a look at it.
Crusty Nut...Its a 3 inch chop.....Thanks to everyone for the kind words. As Ryan alluded to, there will be a proper photo shoot and credits to follow.
I love how the headers tuck's up under the body and along the frame rail. I have been debating on how, if I do not channel the frame in my '29 Sedan, to cover the frame seamlessly. Well, now I see a perfect example. Excellant car in all aspects.
Perfectly proportioned, I'm curious of the tire sizes and manufacturer. 7.50 x 16 on back? And what size front?
The car looks real good, I love the look of the car, classic with a killer stance and nothing better than the black wires with the black wall bias. I hope to acheive a similar style and classic feel to my tudor project I have started, while trying to finish up my RPU.
The rim's/tyres are spot on, same with the 'stance', although I'm curious about the chop.....I realise it's a 'personal thing', but can't help but imagine how much sweeter it might have been if there was just another 1" taken from the front, with the roof tapering a little.... find a PM7, 2x97's, a Thickstun 'air cleaner' and you're there.... Congrats, Drewfus
Holy shit Kevin. You fucking nailed it! The chop really helps proportionaly. Looks like you snuckuponit. Got it Juuuuust right. Like Goldilocks. Just right!
That is too perfect, I regret my sedan stance after seeing that. The pics before the chop looked mediocre, granted there are no side photos though, but with the chop it looks so right. Could a sedan have a better profile?
Does it have an A grille shell or a '32? I can't really tell from the picture. I'm thinking this is a PERFECT application for an A shell. Possibly a painted A truck shell. Nothing to find fault with here and that's refreshing in this day of unending radical A builds. Frank
