Shaved drip rail and Chop top - Austin Tx

Well, back in Texas after another trying semester. About to start work on chopping the top and shaving the drip rails, after taking a bunch of measurements, I have decided to lay the windshield back 1 3/4", and while I haven't figured out how much that will bring down the front, I think it will be around an inch. The back will stay the same height and get pie-cut to change the angle. I am doing this mostly because I don't like the way the roof runs uphill towards the front, and want a slightly more aggressive and modified look.

So if anyone has some spare time over the next couple of weeks and is around the Austin Texas area and wants to check it out or cut some steel, just give me a shout and come on over. Ill be posting pictures in my build thread as I get them.
