I tried to upload more pics for you tonight but something is wrong with the server for the pic poster again I will try again tomorrow! Lots of changes are on the way I decided to re design the fiero fiberglass headlight buckets to use a 3 inch bi xenon projector beam out of a 2004 maxima and a 2 inch projector from the same setup. I need to find a new glass for the 2 inch projectors tho they have cracks in them but I think I may have found a place to get them. I am having a machine shop turn a few custom trim rings also for the lights that will double as the mounts for the projectors. hard to explain how it all works but once the prototype is made I will post pics as soon as I can.

I am curious how many have fallen into dis repair and or ended up being abandoned or junked?
I believe #003 & #005. The Dino replica was never finished and the other was wreaked? V8Archie might shed more light on this. In any case, the majority of choptops made by him are either; running and on the street, parked/non op due to bad weather, or are still being worked on.
I know mine is not listed, and not sure what category it should be placed in. I bought my Choptop kit from Archie and I'm doing the construction. So in all fairness I can't take credit and call it a Home Brew since it is Archie's instructions and his parts that I'm using. The car is'nt finished at this time, but I recently have been able to get back to work on the her and expect to have it painted within the next several weeks. Pic is pretty much were I'm at in the build as of Jun/2014 (I have No Name for Her)

#19 is now the Rotin Resurrection currently under construction here with me. Also Av8fiero's hybrid notch back fastback chop is here also for finishing. 3 chop tops here how fun is that!
Mine is still a 4 day a week car. Picked it up in Orlando last year in need of some engine TLC.. All better now. Pretty sure it was a home brew. Now my baby with an Lt1 in the back. I will post some pics after Daytona.

Thats the one, I am sure you know it from Dragons tail this year. Have been working on making the motor look the part of the rest of the car. Still lots to do before Daytona but the car will be there finished or not.

That is a beautiful car. I saw it at Daytona a while ago. For a long time there were no red fastback choptops. I thought a red fastback choptop would be a little over the top and I was right. That car is over the top beautiful.

Yeah that is Pedro's former choptop. You got a steal on that one ! 👍 Gorgeous car. I can tell you Pedro misses it. He purchased a corvette afterward, but says it gets nowhere near the attention the choptop got.
