It's been done, but why so...

  1. I've seen (picture, ebay auction) a 65 Chevy pickup chopped, but why don't 60s pickups get chopped more often? [​IMG]

    inner and outer roof skins are a******...plus the cab pillars are triangular shaped somewhat...so they need butchered too.....to look right.

    Yeah, The inner holds the outer up on a stock truck.
    Cut it out and the outher caves in and oilcans.
    That was the first thing I did when I chopped one, and I knew I was in trouble...
    I took 6" out of it and I got it to look right, but it was a lot of work...
