This is part 1 in a 1 part series: 1932 Hot Rod Coupe #1: Chop nd Channel the body

  1. This is Part 1 in a 12 part series: Chop and Channeling the body

 I keep giving away my hot rods so lets try it one more time.
I hid the big motor on the last one so thought I would leave the hood off this time to let it be seen, will also be putting the fenders on it, adds a ton a work but really makes for one sweet looking ride.

Lowered the roof about a half inch and lowered the body to where the frame is covered, there's a name for it but ain't coming to me right now.

+++ Up Date+++
cutting body = chop,
lowering over chassis = channeling
...chop n channel.

These are Toys and Joys plans and one from way back when they weren't putting frames on their models which make for a great first time build, you don't have to worry about the frame not lining up or other problem that can get a new builder in trouble.
That being said I had to cut out for the motor.



Already have a motor for it, so we'll see how that works.





Had to get the inners made and finished so I could close it all up.

I'm trying to figure out how this all works but sure would be nice if I could find the how to files for this site.
I guess being a new bee here I need to change my name back to HTL, LOL
