Discussion during the thread about the custom '61 Hawk in another thread has lead me to share this article. It is an article from Custom Rodder Magazine from Spring 1991, written by Jerry Weesner. The article follows famous customizer Dick Dean as he chops the top on a '53 Starliner. The method used by Dean is quite simple, the technique can also be applied to a Starlight, but is much more difficult because of the B pillar and door frames.
Moderators, if posting this article violates forum rules or copyright laws please remove it. Custom Rodder Magazine is no longer being published as far as I have been able to determine. I purposely left the files large for maximum visibility. I am not promoting doing this, but the article has been mentioned numerous times on the forum so I thought I would share it with the group.
