Chopped F-1's - Pictures please

Since my shed fire has blistered the primer big time and I have to strip it to metal and redo the roof, windscreen pillars, cowl and firewall......I have been thinking about getting the roof sliced at the same time.

I have decided NOT to redo the primer and prep myself, I just can't face 6 months redoing it. So it will go into a mates shop to have it done and I will spend the time rebuilding the shed....if the insurance company ever pays up.

While it is there I COULD get him to slice it 3-4 inches as well.......

Anyone got any photos (or links) of chopped F-1's too inspire me.......either series.

Thanks. I was beggining to think no one had any photos.

Nice chop on yours.....any construction photos during the chop?

I am sure I have seen a gallery or thread documenting an F-1 chop, but can't seem to find it.

I think I am after a cross between these two looks:




Chopped, with all the jewelry and WWW caps and rings.

Still in the washington blue with cream grill and wheels I was already doing.

I would like it either way, chopped or full height.....but since I have to redo the body work I may as well review the options

I plan to chop mine someday so this could be a great thread. Here is a list of links that will have pictures of chopped trucks (Mainly the ones that "chopped" in the discription). Although, I'm not sure how much they are chopped, it is still fun to look through them.
