[I need info. on a top chop or top lowering project, this procedure was done without cutting windshield]

 

Dano -

I'm not sure why you want to avoid cutting the windshield (unless you can't find a good glass guy) and although I have heard of it done, I don't have any examples where the glass recesses into a pocket in the brow of the 56.

However, there are some on here that have done sweet chops on their rides. Here are a few for you to peruse:

Fatfenders56 chop of a 56 (glass is stock): https://www.ford-trucks.com/user_gal...&albumid=20625

Enjoy.

 

Hey Randy, thanks for the quick reply,I've seen your name come up often on advice,sounds like you got it goin' on . The Fatfenders 56 chop is exactly what I was looking for, the shortened windscreen looks awesome. Thanks again

 

You're right, it looks awesome but it a lot of work and requires a lot of planning, cut the doors first right under the window opening, about 2'' is the max. There are some pictures in my gallery under 'top cutz' and WillyB did a coverage on his website of the whole job. (Hope that's finished!)
