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.

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.

Packed with information that goes well beyond just chopping top. Lessons in welding, forming metal, how to choose good materials and equipment and more. Easily described as several books in one!

This is a very good book on techniques and methods. It covers many cars and trucks from old to new. The text and photos are both informative. You will get great ideas for many many cars and trucks such as grafting tops from one model of vehicle to another. It is very instructive and easy-to-read. I would recommend this highly.

This is an interesting book.It shows a wide variety of vehicles being chopped.Its a good guide on how to perform this body modification.The book also guides you in not going overboard on a top chop.One interesting point I like is it shows you how to put a later 1960's roof onto a 1950's car,and it looks superb.Havent seen that idea before.There's enough information on how to in this book but not a complete step by step guide.
It will help though.Worth considering and good value for the price.

This book covers chopping tops on A LOT of different vehicles. Pretty well written and lots of photos. You should be able to find something close if you actually want to do this.
