Is it these cars that have the filler cap under a rear light or am I thinking of something else?

hi Steve...welcome back mate 
What a fantastic project and no probs for a man with your ability!! I love the shape of these cars...absolutely beautiful lines. The one Ade posted just looks perfect. I look at the styling of these monsters and just think we have gone backwards over the last 60 odd years
Cheers Steve

I agree Steve...computers can't create a shape of style and beauty ...its all about efficiency so eventually they will all look the same only the badge will be different.
Adrian one is lovely but I think it's out of my price range initially. ...maybe later

Regarding the roof chop.
Does look an awful lot of work for very little effect IMO.
Hardly a massively noticeable modification compared to say a Ford pop etc.
I think the same effect could be achieved by using 2 colours of paint. Darker on top and a lighter shade below.
Or all gloss black !!

Your thinking right Gary ...
There really isn't much difference....They look sort of chopped in the flesh roof line to window base is 1/3rd
Of total sill to roofline...ideal traditional Kustom proportions

Got any paint ideas / colours in mind Steve ?

Good luck with this Steve, it's gonna be great. I particularly like the green one. As been said, hardly worth the effort of a chop.
