If you need any help on getting the glass cut, contact Mike Kapfhammer or Pat Keating in the Louisville area. They should be able to get you pointed in the right direction. Good luck, and keep posting pictures!
Thanks man,ive been doing this stuff off and on for about 20 years and the general public in this area really dont seem to get it.
Ive cault a lot of flak over the years for chopping and lowwering trucks ,people around hear are more into original and musle cars than understanding customs.
I have read about kapfhammer and seen some of his work in books [tex smiths 'how to chop tops '']Its cool that you live so close to him!
