    Hey! I’m planning the chop of my 50 Chevy coupe and really would like to go the hard top route. I’ve been watching Mike Bello’s YouTube videos of the 51 he chopped but he never went as far as showing how he does the windows. Can anyone send me pics in detail how the window channels are made? I particularly am interested in the rear windows an how they slide in and interface with the door window. Pictures and dimensions would be amazing. Advice on the C-channel frames is great also. Thanks!
     
  2. Have you watched Iron Trap Garage (@IronTrap ) YouTube series on chopping 40 Merc? Very detailed info on all aspects of this chop, including hardtop roll up windows.

    No. I’ll check that out. Thanks! I have a general sense of what is going on but actual details are hard to come by.
