Tex Smith's "How to Chop Tops" has a couple of pages (with pictures) devoted
to the 55 - 63 Chevy Pickup. It's published by Motorbooks International. I
purchased this book _after_ performing the 5" chop on my 56 F-100. Although
the chop came out well, I wished I'd read his commentary first. The F-100
can be seen at http://www.flyingmelons.com/JDM/ if you're interested.
