Yep, I am using my side windows. I could go back with OEM windshield but I wanted to use the 96 Sebring windshield. I will be moving the wipers forward and making a new front tray to hold the bottom of the windshield. This will give her a bubbled windshield that will extend out toward the front giving a more modern look. Will post a few more pictures tonight.



Sounds perfect....that's exactly how I would have expected it to work.

I wish I would have known you when I had my chop t-top...no one wanted to touch it to make glass for it and I ended up selling it. You might see it again some day as last time I knew it was at Loyde's.

It would have done no good....That car was doomed from the first cut to the last "GORILLA" weld that was put on it....I saw the car when it first made it up this way and the way it looked at that point it was a parts car....I give Will a thumbs up for trying but not pretty.......

Yeah it was a good effort...butif I ever intend to build a chop t-top I'll ask Mike to do it.

I was not expecting to do a build thread so there are not a lot of the chop.

Gianina took one of me taking out the interior.


A couple after the chop fitting the body back


Sorry but that is all I have for tonight

I can't wait to see more progress. How could you do this and NOT have a build thread?!?!? lol

Good luck with your build, I'm looking forward to seeing you pull this off as no one has pulled a Choptop t-top off yet as far as I know.

Thanks,
I have a few pictures of the T-Tops in and the driver side window test fit. All the welding is done on the top. I have the body cut down in the back. I did not cut any on the T-Top frame it is as it was just a few inches lower.
The Glass shop I got the Sebring windshield from said they will cut my back window for me. I hope to get them a wood template made this weekend. I have to be at work both Saturday and Sunday this weekend so I will not be able to do much. The pictures I post tonight will get the build up to date as it is.
