Sweet truck. I'd definitely leave it. It looks like a real nice job on the chop. Get another squarebody and make that a convertible.

Re: 1976 stepside choptop
Then leave it. If I had the opportunity I'd take it off your hands. Trade you a truck that would be suitable for a convertible. Just buy a blazer with a removable top.
When you get the chance can you post more photos or a link. I love the rat rod look on this truck and it really hits the nail on the head.

Re: 1976 stepside choptop
Thats one impressive looking truck.
How difficult was the chop to do? |
