I always wanted a heavily chopped '33 or '34 fenderless three-window. Highboy or loboy; either has their plusses.

Not quite like this, but close. Good stance, the front wheels are pushed forward just right, split wishbones and a dropped and drilled Bell front axle really add some nice detail, the chop is almost there (I'd need a little less chop and a little more windshield and grille tip-back) but I love the rows and rows of louvers all over the top and hood and I'm sure the rear deck is equally festooned, the thin beltline stripe is a nice touch, but I'm not 100% about the steelies and dog-dish look, polished aluminum wheels and a little wider back tire would probably suit me more, but this white one is still a hot rod that that I like.



There's two more really famous '34's; Chuck and Marsha Rodgers' black. flamed and fenderless, and Pete and Jake's "California Kid" that have always attracted my eye, and have a lot of good mods.
