Tex Smith's How to Chop Tops Paperback – January 1, 1994

I really liked the vairity of chopped autos.

Anyone considering chopping a car for the first time really should read this book cover to cover before making a single cut. The thin that I like best about this book is that it shows some of the several different ways to chop a car, with before/during/after photos, which will help you decide how to get the look you want. Most books and articles tend to show only one way and there are many, many ways to cut and lower a top on most cars.I successfully pulled off a complicated chop on a '53 Chevy after reading this book that has got me many compliments and a couple trophies. If I'd had to rely on "experts" around me it would be ugly. BUY THIS BOOK.

This book is a great primer for anyone interested in car body modification,and provides a good overview of the techniques used,as well as things to consider,when planning a top chop.It covers a variety of different body types.

i felt the book very informitive, but lack step by step procedures. but overall its a good book to start with if your considering a home job.

Good info in the text but the old black and white photos are pretty much useless.
