Having wheels under the cab is great. I can spin it around, and move it anywhere in the shop. I hope to put bigger wheels under it soon.

Bingo.... hard top convertible.

On we go....
with the top turned over, I can clean it up and finish out the chop portion of the rear window
to make things work a little easier, I layed in some 1 inch by 1/8th on the back side of the chop.
a few clamps, and some welding

A few more clamps to hold as everything until it is welded.
Some inch angle below the back window to stiffen things up
The rear chop still needs some work but is coming along.

Started in on leaning the front posts. This was harder than I thought it would be but will be worth it when it is done.

How the F did I miss this one! (oh yea, I have been gone mon thru fri....durr) Nice concept. You going to make a mount in the bed for the top so you can carry it around? Probably not. no rain where you are. That is just my NE thinking for ya

Got the back tires.....30-12.50-15s
Interesting choice of tires. Is this thing going to be fast enough to need those?

Well heck, looks like I'm going to have to get the shop cleaned out sooner than I thought...................
Bonehead, I have a ton of questions already, can I send them in a pm to keep from taking away from your build thread?
Looking to start a chop on a '52 F-1 in the near future, and I kinda feel like a dog trying to pass a peach seed before I start cutting it up.
