Re: Need how to advice on chopping A top

Probably going to bring it back from wild to mild. When it's done, I'm just going to sell it. I have enough cars in the shop now, including my '68.

Re: Need how to advice on chopping A top

It does not matter how close to the middle or top of the pillar you cut it because the middle to the top is a straight line. It only has curve toward the bottom. We took the three inches right off of the top of the windshield, after making our chop cuts about 4-5" down from the top.
