Answer 1

I'm sure you could by a chainsaw at your local Home Depot.

Answer 2

I would start with some scissors. That way you don't take too much off during the process.

Answer 3

You will need to find a body shop that does custom work.

The top itself will need to be adapted from another vehicle with a similar roof line.

This will be expensive as there is a lot more to this than you might think.  The top is a structural part of the car.  The chassis will need to be reinforced.  The body shop will charge about $100 an hour for the work and there will be well over 100 hours work.

I would start by checking the yellow pages looking under body shops.

Expect to pay big bucks for custom work like this.  Well over $10,000 for the labor alone.  Possibly a lot more.

But you will have a car that no one else has.
