In September of 2018 Qvintus drove the car to Lathi, Finland to have it chopped by Gene Winfield at the 2018 Yankee Car Show. Photo courtesy of Qvintus Brusefält Ån.
Qvintus helped Gene during the chop, and in 2019 Qvintus told Sondre Kvipt of Kustomrama that it all started when he was asked to fo to Finland and chop the car together with Gene Winfield. "Of course I said yes. It was a dream come true!" He went to Finland, and the weekend was great for the 23 years old customizer. Photo courtesy of Qvintus Brusefält Ån.

After Finland, Qvintus decided to section the body on the car. The rear fenders were kept untouched during the section, dropping the body down between them. Photo courtesy of Qvintus Brusefält Ån.

1949 Chevrolet owned and restyled by Qvintus Brusefält Ån of Borensberg, Sweden. Named "Lead Legacy," Qvintus bought the car as a stocker, with intentions of having it customized. In September of 2018 he drove the car to Lathi, Finland to have it chopped by Gene Winfield at the Yankee Car Show. Qvintus helped Gene during the chop, and in 2019 Qvintus told Sondre Kvipt of Kustomrama that it all started when he was asked to fo to Finland and chop the car together with Gene Winfield. "Of course I said yes. It was a dream come true!" He went to Finland, and the weekend was great for the 23 years old customizer. Gene and Qvintus chopped the top 4 inches. "After Finland I decided to section the car at home." Back home the frame was kicked up in the rear and fitted with air bags before Qvintus seectioned the body of the car 3 inches by dropping it down between the rear fenders. The rear fenders were then extended before Qvintus added a 1958 Chevrolet Impala type scoop in the roof.[1]
