1948 Dodge P/U hoodcut

Here is a few pics of my 48 Dodge pilot house hood after during and before I sectioned it to match the cuts I made to the cab. I removed 1" at the back and 2"s in the front. On the cab I started out at the back made a 1" piecut to the front. You can see the difference in the hood with one side cut then the other. Next is a one piece hood that will open from the front.

 

Very nice! Going to be a sweet little truck! How much did you take on the top chop?

 

4" out of the top plus 1.5" out of the crown in the roof. Still lots more work to do.

 

Me likes! Don't see many of these old workhorses being rodded! What ch***is you using?

 

1993 Dakota ch***is and floor and firewall and rad. support and hood hinges. I bought a 93 and sold most everything I don't want. I'll also be using power window motors and door locks and a/c.

 

Shoot yeah.
