    Sectioning info?

     



    After looking around here a bit, and trying to google it (lots of how to sections, not how to section ) I've come up almost empty on the how to do it, lots of photos of it after but nada for learning. Any help you can offer would be great, books, videos, even a web site I may have missed. Trying to plan ahead for when I find my Truck (1948-52 Chevy). Chopping the top isn't too bad, but sectioning could be a disaster.

    A good way to plan it is either in Photoshop or get a good side view of the truck and use a razor to cut away what you think needs to be cut and put it back togther. This will easily point out the problem areas.

    Supply me a picture and some general info on what you want and I'll Photoshop it for you.

    Hope this helps

    Great site that Tech referred. Sez pretty much everything about sectioning.
