choppin' a top
hi,
gonna proceed with choppin' the top off of my '48 chev 2dr fleetline sedan. I'm thinkin' 3 inches should look good, leave the back window full size but lay it down a little split the roof across and adding in a piece to move the front ahead to match up the windshield posts. Anybody done this particular make and model?
Does this sound about right? I did get Tex Smith's book "How to chop tops." and it looks fairly straight forward although a bit of labour involved.
Would appreciate any input.
Thanx,
Pablo
ps. I'll take pics as I progress and send them in k?
Visited a family member at Dockery Ford from the time I was 1 year old through their ownership and then ownership change to Morristown Ford. Dockery was a major player in the Hi Performance...
