How do I chop my top off?

Gene Winfield, custom-car builder, demonstrated how to do a top-chopping on May 19 and 20. There were approximately 100 registered attendees. Various tools and equipment were donated from local autoshops that were later signed by Winfield and then auctioned off to members of the audience. After the event, Winfield stuck around to sign autographs, answer questions and sell merchandise.

Winfield has appeared on the hit TV show Monster Garage.
