Somewhere on the forum I saw another pcture of the exact same car only it was white.

Is this the same car just repainted, or did you do two of them exactly the same ?

He has (2) of them. Both choptops. I must be a CA thing?

Similar but different, one coupe, one fastback, a number of updates, lots of work!

Orville is a craftsman for sure. I would have gone a different way on the front, but I've been studying this car to try and see how he did the chop. This Buick windshield could be the answer to my chop t-top windshield problem.

Orville, if you are reading, please post more pics of the front. Especially in the cowl area with the hood open. Thanks.

I just got off the phone with Orville and he is currently working on #3 choptop using the Eclipse front windshield. The windshield is only 3 or 4" longer but with a curviture.

Interesting...No offense to Will-Martin, but the right way to chop a car is to start with the glass and chop around it. Doing it the otherway around is like looking for a needle in a haystack. I'll never find any glass to fit. If I ever get #14 "finished" I'll have some time to figure it all out.

No. I haven't. I need to go by and see what's cooking at Orville's.

Orville brought one of his cars out to the West Coast Fiero BBQ last Saturday. It had a Series III 3800SC and a modern dashboard (not sure what car, maybe a new Grand Prix?) inside . Pretty cool!
