Seen it. Don’t like it. But you have to give it up for ingenuity and fab skills.

The only thing I like chop tops on are Model As and late 40s Mercs, otherwise I don’t like the proportions. Probably trying to recover 30% of the build cost. I think there is a photo of that one somewhere in the forums.

Model T's need the tops chopped too, they built them to tall. My brother is doing one now without the top chopped looks to tall to me.

You’re right, they tend to look like a phone booth on wheels.

Exactly.... The roof line is already low from the factory. 

But if you lowered the floor pans as well there might be some headroom.
