So I was wondering if anyone out there (cough...car2lol...cough), would be willing to post a how too on "how to chop your top", that has gone through it before, and maybe post some progress pictures?

I have scrounged and looked but haven't really found anything concrete as to what to do for the DIYers out there like me.

There is a little here and there but for the most part it is fairly vague!!

Waht do you all think?

I was watching Clynt chop his first , then my brother and I chopped mine

I don't have anymore progress pics of the chop, only what's there.

V8 Archie has a chop top kit now with real glass windows, that's the way to go.

EDIT: Clynt has glass windows and I have cheap plastic

OK thanks All

If I come across anything, I'll post here for people!!!

Edit:

Ok...I found this vid clip with, I think, Archie explaining what he does to chop the top down and where he cuts it is fairly long but there were a lot of questions that I had answered.

He starts to explain the procedure around the 12 min. mark
