Went to share some pictures of redoing the visor on the chopped and channeled T for the Wixson family, but didn’t take any before pictures overall and reason why I didn’t like how it fit.
So the car is chopped 6”, but back window panel was sectioned so only 2.75” was taken out of it so looked proportionate, as well as windshield header redone to take only 2.75” out as well.
Car looked naked so visor was added, which fit horribly, down to low, not flat, etc.
So I cut the ends off, changed angle of visor overall, made new corner sections, welded on, metal finished and back on, button head fasteners needed, a little more planishing and some fake pantina to match the car and the visor as well as chop work and look right at place. With all that, we have a window frame that still swings out, only lost 1.5” of visibility over non-chopped, no visor car, so still a net win.
