Don't chop too much if you must use hat to hide your bald spot...

Hi Tim,



Seppo's pic shows a chopped and channeled car which reduces floor to ceiling height even more. If your car wont be channeled, couldn't you put in a pair of foot wells so your knees wouldn't be wrapped around the steering wheel? It looks like that nice chassis would permit them to drop down to at least the bottom of the frame rails and not show from the outside. Maybe Charlie could source some wheelbarrows as doaners for you...

Actually I am building it very much like this pickup which I have driven.  It fits me (or should I say I fit it) quite nicely.   So I don't think a 4" chop will be too much.

Not quite finished but you can get an idea how it will look.

I get the "bone head" award for the day. While de-burring with a wire wheel it got away from me and and took a nice piece of skin with it.
