Archie's chop's/Mikes windows results. (Page 12/31)

I don't see it in the pictures at all, but its still hard to ignore the 3 people saying its off. The truth is that the only problem here is if the owners of the chops have a problem with the roof of there cars being a noticeable amount off.

Unless you took a measuring tape to the cars in question then STFU. Your a respected member of this forum, but that post was totally uncalled for.

I don't know about "a respected member" here, but there is one thing I'm sure of, "I have three V8Archie choptops" and that my friend allows for room to speak on this issue. So unless you have (in your words) "took a measuring tape" with documentation aided by pics then you my friend should STFU.

I find it interesting that you and others bring up the subject regarding "obvious issues" w/o any documentation and then hide when picks are shown of the Stinger that demonstrate otherwise. No picks, no ruler, nor any documentation just plan old mouthing off on the subject at hand.

Now isn't that something. And you're telling me to STFU.

Since class in is secession I ask you, "What stage of completion was Will-Martin choptop when it left Archie's shop?" If you don't know the answer to this question then STFU.

Edit: I can't spell when I'm laughing while typing.

I give up...

Joshua and I had to take this conversation to PMs as this thread has been overrun with off-topic bickering. Oh well, time to move along. Nothing to see here.

Reckon it's hard to tell much w/o breaking out a ruler... camera lenses can do funny things... (like add 10lbs... or in my case, about 50lbs)...



This shot may not be perfect, but I broke out the ruler and the stinger is dead on... I don't see the problem.

None of us have anything to gain from Archie's chops being off, and even if a few are a little off it really only matters to the owner of the cars. Neither of us have documentation and your trying to jump in without th information sitting in your garage. Like I keep saying I haven't and don't see it,I have seen the car at Loyde's but didn't payed much attention to it when I had the chance but there are three other who said they have. You could do us a favor and take a measuring tape to the 2 of yours you have access to. You have the ability so why not entertain us? If I owned a Archie chop as long as it wasn't to far off I think I could live with it. With wills permission if I'm ever able to get close to his car I will measure it if no one else has. If we're going to keep talking about this it need to go to PMs or start a new thread.

Jon, that is awesome... exactly something that I would expect from a NASA engineer...
but I see something wrong in your 'Y' sub1 calculation... j/k I don't even know what that is.
"Pie are round and Cornbread are square."

Since we had already come so far with talking about NB's and rear angles, I wanted to see if archived pics showed anything, as opposed to just guessing at it. I am sure the thread is getting back on track... and now you've got some nice shots of the Stinger as decoration...

Man, go ahead and have the glass discussion. Taking it to PM's would leave us all less enlightened.

Thanks, I fixed that Y sub 1 for you... Right after this short interlude, we will return on topic...

Well as good as it looks you cant go off a picture, tape it and say its perfect. The one thing I did forsure at the 25th was go look at the Stinger for the same issue as Will's car. I mean its not like I am making all this up just to have something to talk about and get war going on. Hell if I wanted to do that I would bring up how slow and behind in times Archee's swaps are. I will leave the whole lopesided NB issue alone until I see the car again and not only have picture proof but several witnesses and hell I will even break out the ruler. But in the end, I will be right and all the folks who cant stand for the "KING" to be wrong will see.

Yeah I know at this resolution, one pixel is probably a 1/4 inch or more. But my point is that it's not terrible obvious to the casual observer either. And none of the NB owners themselves have seen it either.
