    Should I get tinted windows for a model A coupe? I've got patterns sitting at the gl*** shop waiting for me to get back to them about what I want to do.
    Any comments appreciated.

    I just bought mine and the windows are still tinted, just waiting for a hot enough day to get rid of it. I don't think any hot rod should be tinted. Don't you want everyone to see who's driving that *****in' car??

    at most a very slight grey or green tint, I've never seen a tinted hot rod that looked halfway decent. New cars are one thing, old cars just look bad IMO

    I say clear. But I'm not really a fan of tinted windows on anything.

    I agree, factory green tint is about the only thing you can get away with, unless you are building a g***er, then amber, blue or red kicks ***.

    If you mean modern window tint, no way.

    Thanks for the feedback, everyone. I guess that clears that up(pun intended)
