Hmm,, shorter font and rear window, lower A pillars on the body, cut, remove, and re-strengthen all of the roof suports. Cut, remove, re-restrengthen the upper door supports,, new window glass to accomodate the new window height. Not to mention new paint to hide all of the bodywork. Hmmmm,,, shouldnt cost more than a few thousand. Not even worth it. Leave that look to the hot rodders,,,,PLEASE!!!!

for sure leave it to street rods. the glass is what will cost you the most. its hard to successfully shave tempered glass (typically sand blasted) so it would probably have to be custom made which gets extremely pricey. other than that its not too hard if youre skilled with a TIG and a planishing hammer. but really the glass is the most complicated part.

I was thinking of chopping the top of a Delorean. It'll be sooo sick.
HMMM... Just for ****s and giggles I cut the roof of this LS400 to show everyone your liking. I for one think the LS400 has a short enough roof.
I apologize for the quality, I was chopping on my New MacBook
