Shaving handles is something that was originated on old american hot rods.

I think shaved handles would look amazing on an SC


the SC is already a sweeping sort of body... anything to git rid of any cracks or indents or such would look great

i would agree..they would look nice..but there are those problems on what would you do if your battery were to die..so unless you have another way of getting in, in case something like that were to happen, dont do it
