f1 chopped or not

im looking into an f1 pickup,but i dont know chopped or not...maybe we can see some picks of either,,,they look good anyway but i need someone too swap my opinion

 

IMO they look good without the chop.

 

If you do chop it, consider a very minimal chop. Often when it's subtle, you don't necessarily consiously know it's been chopped but you can still achieve an asthetic improvement. Less is more.

 

Not

 

I vote NOT as well.....

 

I like them subtly chopped, especially if its lowered.

 

I love these trucks chopped as long as its done right and not overly done i say do it!

 

Not.

 

Slight chop

 

Chop of 1 - 2" maximum, and then only if lowered. Otherwise, they have good "trucky" proportions as is

 

I've got one of each, unchopped if I had a do over!

 

I took 6" outta mine, and channeled the body 4". I didn't section it at all, but gimme a couple minutes and lemme dig up a photo for you to see if that's what you want....

side note: any chops beyond, say 2" is a serious undertaking, that could be why some people choose not to do it. There may be a different way around it, but when I did it (about a month and a half back) I quartered the roof. It went pretty smoothly for me (I had the help of a friend and his dad) but I've seen them not go as well. It depends on what you plan on doing though with the final product. 6" out of it, and i've still got plenty of head room, although my line of sight through the windshield has been affected.

*** Sometimes the thumbnails dont come up, so I numbered them. If you see a # and no pic, hit reresh

 

I chopped mine 2 1/4 in the front and 2 1/2 in the rear. Takes that 'hump' out of the back of the roof.

 

B-Bob's truck looks just right. Just chopped enough to slick it out without making it look smashed. Good looking truck all around.

 

im looking at one that is 4-1/2 inchs on the low side..need too see a pic of one to help me in my quest

 

I vote NO

 

I like them stock height.

 

mine is chopped windsheild laid back

 

My vote would be NO as well.

 

I Like them unchopped.

 

can someone photochop out the rear fenders and ad round ones like a willys pickup???

 

I dont have any good pics but if you look under my name over there<-----
is a pic of my old truck chop it and channel it if you want to be really cool!!!

 

no chop....

 

Leave it

 

if ya looking at the purple one from flower fields better jump on it fast i know the guy really well and am really thinking about scooping it up....price is right and its chopped already ...

 

not that one,,this one is from a while back,, its leaded.but i like the rear fenders on marks gold one

 

oh cool ......yea the one from flower feilds is pretty cool and cheap enough to work with ...figured it might be the one you wanted

 

Trucks should not be chopped. Except those IH trucks.. Those look retarded without a chop.

 

I would NOT chop, the cab has great looks by itself. We went another route and changed the windshield ( and a lot more )
