Re: [T3] chopped notch

<x-flowed>OK, I couldn't resist.  Here is a little PhotoChop of Sophy just for 
grins.

In my opinion, the 2 inch chop doesnt look too bad, but is so subtle it 
is hardly worth the effort.  Of course most people would say that about 
Sophy's flames too.  The 6 inch chop is just too extreme for my likely. 
 The stock Square is a very well proportioned car.  So are the Fasty 
and Notch.

I like a good chop on the right car.  My buddy's 66 Ford Pick-up has a 
great chop and looks much better chopped.  Model A's and T's look good 
chopped.

In the end it is your car and you can do what you want with it.  A chop 
is pretty extreme and extremely difficult to reverse if you done like 
it.  I had lots of heartburn just over cutting the hole in Sophy's roof 
for the sunroof.  In the end I am glad that I did it and don't regret 
it.  It was great cruisin to Hershey with the sunroof open.

BTW, if anyone is interested in a quicky PhotoShop of their proposed 
car mods let me know.  Much easy to change your mind after seeing it on 
the computer than after.  Check out the CarArt section on my website 
for more examples.
