do you have any history on the car?  or can you get any.  who built it or where did it come from.

trying to find out if it OG came from Arizona by way of my friend Toddy. he living in Beaverton for a while.  If so that would be funny as hell cause then it would be my old 1970 chop convertible that someone made at rod out of.


I will try to find pic of my old cop convertible

As cool as that would be, I don't think that is the same car. it used to be a sedan and the guy i got it from worked on it 12 years ago and then his buddy sold it to a guy who cut the top off but never finished it. Then it made it back to the guy i got it from who finished it all up. That is about all the info i got on the car right now.

Oh yeah mine was a 70 sedan first as well. I sold it in 1995 in Arizona already chopped and everything smoothed and rolled over rear rain gutters shaved off also . so probably not same car.   :dontknow:
