One of my faves is narrowing a modern body to fit a Model A frame with wheels sticking out. Yours will be as good!

Wow, this is wild! I like it a lot, looks like you're doing a great work here. Cutting up a body like that is definitely not easy but you've done very good job on it. Frame looks very good too and those headers are just perfect...Loud Pipes & Lead Feet!

Can't wait to see more.
