I was wondering that myself.....
[S[S[S Uh let's see, you already had one (along with that Chevy light) and you got these off eBay.........that makes you having three right? So spill the beans man, what are ya gonna do with four tail lights [S [P[P
Not too much going on that's picture worthy. I got the front step plates (under the door bulges) back on and all the chrome back on. Went on vacation for 2 weeks, but came back and started driving it to work. (Had to move my truck after a week and the hood looks soooo short on it now)
Found the front tires were tearing at the fenders when I turned, so bent the wheel well lips under better and decided to put my RRR sticker (Thanks Tripper) on the rear window, but decided it was too small - I think I put it on the dash.
And I put a poll up - so far everyone says I like coolest cruisin' with my elbow out - very important stuff ya know!
Seriously though, I've been thinking about washing it (I never have except for where I weld). I am torn - the dirt adds a certain patina that I'll never get back. Undecided....
OK, so the poll is up about the sectioning, so lets see some photo shop[P
Would be neat to take it outa the body and not those beautiful front fenders, like a few inches between the top of the rear fenders and the rear window forward. I would just hate to see those fenders made smaller.
So who is the photo shop guy here?
POSTING FOUL: over use of smilies in one post. 5 post penalty.
Anyhoo.... If I do section the body, the rear fenders will stick out farther than the trunk looking like fins. I don't care for the fin look, so my solution would be to extend the fender bulges in toward the trunk and use 2 lights on each side. (I can see it in my mind)
Uh...that was already the plan from page one.
The body is sectioned, but not the fenders. Now I don't think I'd go near that far though. Probably 2" or so.
Great minds (or maybe fools) think alike?
And this is kinda where I wanna go with it. Dropped to the dirt first, then a chop, and maybe down the road a big section.
Concepts: 1-2 chop/drop 3-4 chop/drop/section
I'm going to make a stand and say I'm calling it good as far as dimensions profile and stance goes. Hell It's damn near famous
I think Torchman is right. I've done the same thing too; spending a ton of time and effort chasing "perfection" only to end up disappointed because it was better to begin with. Personally, I wouldn't section your car, I think the lines and proportions are dead on. Just my $0.02.
