    The chop is the biggest deal when it comes to the overall look of the car. The car looks cool and I remember sitting in my car like you did and dreaming, nothing beats that! I went with a removal marine canvas top with ‘lift the dot’ type fasteners, it workout well and is very functional, and most importantly still looks cool. Good work T as usual, great video!

    Said it about the last video, one of the best looking chops on an A I’ve seen in a long long time. You should be very proud of the work done.

    watching you sit in your car dreaming and imagining, brought back how i felt sitting in mine doing the same. It was a nice memory, Thanks. I finished mine 8 years ago, your day will come.

    At first I was against chopping such a nice car but what a surprise when I saw your methodology cutting the top and making the cuts meet. Most others that do the same tend to make a Frankenstein of a job. Please keep doing what you are doing Travis. Thanks.

    The feeling when you have made the car really yours, you roll it out and just look at it, sit in it. That's so cool. Coupe looks bad ass!! Nice squeaking horn. 👌😂

    Gonna be awesome? It's already awesome and it's gonna be awesomer!. Only a car guy can sit in his car and make driving sounds. My first hot rod was a 65 Chevy II with a built 283 and 4 speed with a posi. It wouldn't run until I got a new carb but it didn't stop me from making engine sounds and going through the gears.

    When I chop one of those i like to cut the door tops up high keeping the window channel straight. Then give it a vertical cut next to the window channel and narrow it.

    "Sun-Roof" is a cool idea but I like the finished fabric insert on the outside with the chicken wire exposed on the underside. Good luck on your "Birthday Thrash" !! ALWAYS loved Model A's with a 32 Shell !! Don't know for sure, but I would say without the fenders, the hood needs to go. Seems to make it much more/less "Hot Rod" ??? ;o) 🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️👍👍🛠⚙️🔩🗜

  • @michaelguinn5736
    @michaelguinn5736 2 года назад

    Travis, car looks great!! What Brand of Front Axle did you use, is it a 2" drop? Also, your hood seems to fit your glass grill shell pretty good, or is that a aftermarket steel grille shell? My plan for our 30 A Coupe is identical to yours with the exception of maybe a Buick Nail head or 394 Olds...be safe!!! God Bless!!

    To bad you live so far away which I live in South Dakota. I would hire you to chop the top 2" on my 31 Model A Coupe just because I like how you took your time to do it right and plus I like how you take pride in your work. I am building mine the old school look kind of like yours but with a 302 Ford which I am running a 8" Ford Maverick rear end. 4" dropped Superbell straight axle using a 32 Ford chassis and it's going to be a highboy coupe I am running painted smoothies which I have full moon hubcaps the salt flat look which I am running 8" wide 16's on the back with 235/75 R16's and 205/75 R15's.
