First move is to section the cab between the door hinges.

it is only my cruddy opinion but I think ADs dont look right with a chop unless they have also been sectioned.

narrowed though? never seen that!

Interested to see how you do the top chop as some cut these into to quarters(Not necessary IMHO) or straight across and put in a filler piece (I wouldn't do that again)

Knowing your work I'm sure you have it already planned out.
If I ever do one of these I will chop it like the pic shows.

They can look good with a chop only if it's not dropped too much. I have seen them narrowed but never saw the point myself as they aren't exactly the roomiest truck ever built. But hey. It's what the customer wants....
