Those wheels are nice, but it would of been better if it was chrome.

I think its a lot easier to photoshop than it is pull off in real life. A top chop on a sedan would be monsterous amount of work to get done right...I'm not saying it couldnt be done, but making it look like the pic would be an incredible task.

Do some comparisons between auto concept art and what the actual vehicles turned out to be...not just production cars but some of Foose's creations as well.
Dont get me wrong, the pic looks hot, but door geometry and window angles would be real mother.

Fender flares and fat meats might be hard on hubs but much easier to make look right.

...and I love that pace car btw...even though it has no functioning roof. Here's a pic I chopped some time ago with larger chrome wheels and an oversized spoiler.

Eh the bigger wheels scream slow show car in both cases.

Sry just my opinion.

I know what you mean Rick...I've always loved the way that chop came out. I have fantasized countless times of putting my T-Bat in custom rod shop and pulling a "Jay Leno" like he did with his 66 Olds Toronado. Lose the whole floorpan and install the full Corvette running gear (the 6spd manual would be hot) even if the engine wasnt heavily modded, since 350-400hp is plenty for big fun...but the low stance over the wide rolling stock, maybe some ZO6 wheels, flared fenders and that heavenly V8 rumble...now that would be a "ThunderBat" worthy of its namesake.

and how, Tim. And how. wonder what THAT project would look like. Toss in some monster tubs for good measure, and you'd be all set. Bummer about it is that your sleeper look would be trashed.

Nice create idea. I don't know if it is going to work for head area room if you lower the roof down?

Don't ask for any assistance for a high item Rick, go get a ladder, that's why they got invented.

LMAO! Bad enough I need one just to get into the Camaro. All other hard-to-reach items, I use a remote control helicopter and do a HALO jump.
