    Thats awesome, probably sitting in the garage not really getting anything done and then it hits you, "lets chop the truck, right now" "okay".
    Looks great!!!

    Looks cool. Good move keepin that rear window @ stock dimensions. Now all you need to do is get that IRON CROSS tattooed on your ass & you'll be cruisin'.

    Looks like you're on your way to a nice chopped ride! Interesting method with the back window leaving it stock size, I'd like to see how it looks with the bed on it. Keep up the good work!

  14. Cool!!
    You did good. The back window looks cool. How much did you cut it? It looks right. You didn't make the mistake of chopping it too much.

    im glad everybody digs it. i took 3 out of the back and 3 3/4 out of the front. instead of sectioning the roof i leaned the A pillars back.

    How does the transition from the cowl to the roof going up the a pillars look? Do you have a bump where you leaned them back or if not how did you get it smooth. My buddy wants to chop his wife's 48 doing the same way you did with the back window. He seen a 49-50 Ford down at the americruise that was chopped but it had this bump where the a pillar was leaned back. later plmczy

    Nice work, it looks similar to my '51, which was my first chop as well. I also left the rear window stock.
    This brings back memories although I did it a little earlier in the day.

    I agree with whoever said that that chop goes real nice with the hood section! Very nice indeed.
