Chopping the top on this Taildragger required a little thought. It couldn't be done the usual way I do it. Wouldn't work. So, what I did was cut the front posts to the desired top height, then cut the back posts half way through, down the body line. Then i pushed the top down flush, as you can see in picture 1. Next thing to do is to nose the front end by grinding it down for a smoother look, as you can see in the pic to the right. |

Next I added two big globs of Bondo on each end of the car, and filed it down to the shape you see now.
