Didn’t want the ‘41 to feel neglected so it got 4 new tires and a nice spring freshening up too! Just in time to cruise down to the @asburyparkcircuit this weekend for the “Customs by the Sea” show at the @asburyparkconventionhall . It’s looking like a beautiful weekend so if you’re looking to cruise… DO IT! #kustomsforever #certsjersey #somethinelse #choppedtop

42 - 48 Chevy coupe. As an independent designer, this would have been my submission to the staff of Chevrolet for production in the late 30's early 40's... Streamlined roofline, teardrop skirts and brightwork in the lower section of the fenders...

54-56 Cadillac concept. Chopped with a 57 Cadillac roof, front fenders and hood roll down for a more sleek appearance. Modified front wheel wells and rear fenders roll gracefully for a streamlined appearance.

Starting with the George DuVall and Frank Kurtis 35 Ford here. I designed my interpretation as a coupe with skirts. Chopped with the DuVall window treatment and side window profile, this vehicle has personally been one of the most influential designs, along with the Mel Falconer 40 Ford built by Harry Westergard. Those two vehicles have influenced all of my builds as well as transportation design work.

1938 - 39 Lincoln Zephyr 5 window hardtop coupe. Chopped, suicide doors, modified fenders and brightwork.
I always liked Dungi's Jag and my longtime friend @timeisfatal encouraged me to do a chopped 60's Jag. I've had been working out mods in my head previously for a 3.8 S-type and here they are. In the early 90's I had designed a chopped 2 door V12 XJ12 with highly modified wheel wells and roof. Definitely enjoy the Jaguars and this one features a heavy chop, modified trunk along with front and rear fenders. The front wheel wells are modified to mimic the rear wells and in my opinion flows much nicer than the round original design.
The patina pickup headed out today . Always great collaborating with @latenitespeed . Can’t wait to see him take it through the finish line . Time to get back on his 31.5 coupe! #32pickup #shoptruck #choppedtop #1932ford

54 Chevy with substantial stainless adornments. These decorate the top of the front fenders and on the top and bottom of the rear fenders. Modified headlight rings molded and frenched in. Highly modified chopped top with rear wheel wells deleted.

A yo, can you’s even fit a hoagie through that jawn?Thats Philadelphian for “ wow, that car is chopped a lot.” The Philadelphia Modifiers meant business. The engine is set so far back it’s barely visible in the picture. These pictures came from an article about some crazy ass drag strip that was just a straight-away on a stock car track. You would have to bang out some Tokyo drift shit at the end of your run to avoid slamming the wall.

1940 Lincoln Zephyr which coincides with my previous post. This was another old design I had made with a hardtop roof before deciding to create a lift off roof. I also had played with modifying 40 Mercury headlight rings with 39 lenses. Other than those changes afterwards it is a cool ride either way!!!

1941 Lincoln Zephyr with my signature 40 Mercury headlight rings, chopped Duvall windshield, shaved, modified front fenders along with the trunk. 20 to 25 years ago I bought 4 Zephyrs from a collector out in St. Louis. One was a 40 Zephyr coupe convertible, the other a 3 window coupe, a 5 window coupe and a 4 door. This one is almost exactly how the convertible was destined to be, except it was going to have a lift off roof. Regrettably it was sold along with the 3 window because I prefer the 5 window coupe chopped like my next post and in one of my previous posts. But this convertible look is a close second compared to the 5 window for my taste. I'll probably incorporate this look with a removable top for the 5 window...

Concept/prototype for a Lincoln and/or Continental. Lowered roofline, removable hardtop, suicide 2 door, and and and... I believe this was originally a 58 clay model. I enjoy working with Y2-KLAY the industrial clay and enjoy seeing any preproduction designs. We used a wrap for the surfaces and the chrome trim which I'm sure is what we see in this photo. You can see the mid 60's form being experimented here and the taillights are similar to what came out in the 70's...
