The Iron Trap Garage crew are never without projects, but this one is special because it feels like it has been forever since they chopped or channeled anything. But that is all about to change with the Mangled Mercury project. It’s time for this rough machine to get some love and that means cutting the top into multiple pieces in preparation for some pretty substantial styling changes. Changes that we totally approve by the way. I mean who doesn’t love a chop top on a hot rod?
If you haven’t ever seen how a chop goes down, this is going to seem a bit extreme, but they have to cut the whole roof off. And from there the roof is going to get cut up some more and then put back together with some new sheet metal as well. It’s going to require a lot of welding and metal shaping and we love it.
Check it out.
