This my first attempt at a chop that I've completed.
Very happy with the result and the whole car has come together pretty well.
Enjoy.!
many thanks for all the comments and help along the way

Nice chop there Ian. looks perfect. How did you do the open chokes on the carbs? are they photoetched parts?

Hiya BeeRS,
Thanks for the kind words.
I drilled out the top of the carbs then punched some small alloy discs out of thin aluminium from a soda can ( actually a Jack Daniels Bourbon and Coke can ) :-)
real easy to do.

Great looking build ! I like the color and the smooth look of the body . Really nice engine detailing too , especially the carbs .
Those old paint brushes came in handy too !
