    This might be one of the best looking chops I have seen yet. Usually I think too much is gone, but this is just right, making it flow more natural with the middle range of the car. The idea of the hearse is bad ass too!

    Exceptional work! It certainly has a more relaxed appearance now! Glad that you didn’t overchop!

    That looks absolutely stunning! And it’s easy to ruin the proportions especially on such a long car. I’ve seen far too many extreme chops where they leave little peek-a-boo chips of glass for the windows and windscreens and the whole thing goes from 1940’s gangster ride to a blown up matchbox toy with an engine. This came out like a proper luxury station wagon that Cadillac used to do, albeit rarely, way back in the old custom commission/coach building days.

    I was lucky enough to get a ride in this car with a band a few years ago back to the hotel after we played a rockabilly gig in Helsinki. I can say that this car is even more awesome in person. Coolest taxi I’ll ever get a ride in!! Hope to visit Finland again one day, great people 🖤

    Nicely done looks like it was just enough. I have 46 Pontiac Hearse that I'm building slowly I believe it's as tall but the windows are shorter which besides cost will negate a chop. I just wanna drive it after having it for 15 years lol

      Brian Cook, the comment section is there so anyone can write their opinions, not just experts, not everyone likes the same looks or ideas. How many tops have you hammered?, were the proportions correct?, I've seen many terrible chopped tops, didn't look right to me, but that's just my opinion.
