I'm late on this one but I gotta pass on my sympathies as well.I loved what you did with the panel and it hurt to see it ruined.Cudos on starting over though,and make sure to get lots of pics of the build so we can be a part of your madness.

good to hear you are alright from your wreck. I really feel you on your panel, that was a sick truck and if it happened to mine I would most likley loose hope on the project. So I am glad to hear that you are already on your way to building it back up. Good luck with the new one and post some pics as your working on it!

that sucks

Man that sucks bad. That was a clean ass ride you had. By far one of the best looking '65 model panels I have EVER seen. I wish I could have talk to you before the tragedy but I would still like to ask you for some pointers. I want to body drop and chop the top on my 66 chevy pickup. I pretty much got the bed a front clip figured out but I am lost on the cab. Can you give me any pointers or tell me how to get started? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I am a firm believer that what goes around comes around. If someone did burn your ride, they'll get theirs eventually. Laterz.

thanks man. i will help you any way possible. instead of pointers, how bout pictures, we are chopping a 66 chevy and flushmounting the front and rear glass on it, its got the whole front end one piece, molded to the cab and all. as far as a BD, dont need one, they will lay rocker w/o one, depending on how low you wanna go. im just on break right now, ill get back later, shoot your questions to me, or open a new chop top thread and ill post pics, and answers there.
