    2 1/2" to me is a perfect chop. Nice.

    That doesn't look "better" it looks "bitchin'"!

    Brave man! It's looking good. I like that you're fitting a visor and fenders.

    Coming right along... go ahead and extend that body line all the way around the belt line. The standard coupes had that body line, and it just looks right. I think when you hang the doors, you will see that it looks like something is missing without it. Definitely looks better chopped. Looking good man.

    Great video! Can you share the measurements for your cuts. Also would you have changed anything to make the finish work easier?

    Just finished watching this video. Nice job so far. I myself have a 1930 Model A I bought 2 years ago. Paid 6 grand for mine. Locked up 4 cyl. and trans. Broke windshield and door windows. No interior. But I wanted one for a long time. I'm curious. What did you pay for yours if you don't mind me asking. Haven't done anything to it yet. Not sure if I want to chop it. I'm 65 and just want to put a v8 in it and get it on the road for now. With chopping it you have to cut the glass. What do you plan on doing about the glass? BTW, You are so right. These do look way better chopped. What engine? Did I hear you say chevy? Keep up the good work.

    Loving the build, but the audio kills me. I turn it up to hear what you're saying and then the music comes in 4x louder.
