Carson tops and '51 Chevys

[xadamx]

Does anyone have an early 50's Chevy with a chopped Carson top, or any car with one for that matter. I have a '51 and I was just curious as too the cost of this procedure, and if anyone had photos. Thanks a lot.

Last couple 51 Buicks cost about 3K for top only. Not including chop and windows...........OLDBEET

Thanks for the posts...3K isn't too bad. I won't have to worry about the glass(I have a glass guy that trades that for tattoos) and the roofs hacked off already. I like the look of a soft-topped car, nice and classic. Keep the pics comin' if there are anymore.

Here is a pic I took as Paso a couple years ago. I really like this one.
