That's just a pic I grabbed of the net, looks to be a 64 by the grill. If you do go for the chop, cut the top off the windshield first! After that it will be 'simple' metal work.
Welcome. I have a 66 F100 with a 351 Cleveland 4V engine.
I just put some wider wheels on it. 15x8, front and back. nothing crazy.
My next step is to lower it.
I've been wavering between the Dream Beam lowering kit and a Crown Vic front end. I have Power steering and Disc brakes on the front. So, I think the Dream Beams might be an easier job for me. The Crown vic front end sounds pretty simple. But from my experience, would end up being more expensive.
I think the Dream Beam kit is around $800. Don't know what I'd have into a swap from a Crown Vic. Depends what parts I could sell from a donor car. (and my better half isn't crazy about parts cars sitting in the driveway
