Model A's/Deuces with Raked Roofs

You'd usually see T's with raked roofs but has anyone ever done a Model A/Deuce with a raked roof chop? Any pics?
Thanks

Sounds rather rat roddy and silly to me. But I am reading a radical wedge chop into what your wrote and not a slight wedge chop just to streamline things a tad.
One of my best friends has a habit of saying that this rig or that rig is "radical" which 99% of the time I am going to know that said vehicle is a screwed up POS in my viewpoint.

 

Yea no I'm not talking about anything rat rod-ish no way. I just mean like a slight raked roof or even a laid back roof for a streamlined, Salt Flats look

biting tongue

 

Are you talking roadsters or coupes?

 

I prefer a rubber rake. HRP

 

every time I try to use a rubber rake, the leaves just keep bouncing around

 

This one looks good! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/threads/32-sedan-lakester-roof-chop.934219/
and this one! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/threads/tudor-update-angle-chopping-a-’28-ford.377233/

 

Straight chop, no rake for 28 through 31 in my opinion...

 

I'm with HRP on the rubber rake, but I like big&littles also.....................

 

Raked the roof on my last 32 sedan chop from 3 inch's in the back to 3.5 inch's in the front. I always thought of it as a wedge chop?????????????????????????????????????????????????

 

It's a wedge chop for sure. Do you have pictures?

Some 32 ( 3 window coupes are chopped 1/2" more in the front to even up the side window openings.
