Taillights back in with some sweet lenses, I think the back looks fucking clean but I still need to lower the rear bumper 1 3/4".

I think my torque converter might have a chip or two in it.

I took the chevy out to a car show today and had a blast! They had a loud pipes contest and I ended up winning the 6 cylinder class. Beat out a bunch of old guys with paint jobs that cost more than my whole car.

Started chopping it today, got the roof cut off then ended up cruising it around all day because it's just so damn fun to drive without a roof or any glass. We had people taking pictures of us at red lights and getting honks and thumbs up everywhere we went.

Bag it. As long as you do the setup right and don't skimp out on parts, there should be no problems. Remember to put water traps between the tank and the valves, and that will cut down greatly on air leak problems in the valves. Check Gambino Kustoms for a c-notch setup for the pre-55 Chevy's that allow you to notch and keep your interior easily. Always run dual compressors and at least a single 5 gallon tank. Slam Specialties puts together some awesome affordable setups.

Here's my last bagged ride, didn't need a notch since the frame has a natural kick up in the rear that allows the car to lay frame:

After you finish that chop, bag it and throw some Supremes and pinner whites on it. It will look slick.

I've been going back and fourth about bagging it but I think I'm going bag the rear this winter. To get it as low as I want it, it's going to have to be notched anyway so might as well 4 link and bag it.
