    But when deciding between a fibergl*** 3W and
    ... NO 3W ...
    a fibergl*** 3W wins every time :D

    The question he's asking is: should he keep his real steel shoebox Ford, or get a fibergl*** 32 3w. I'd vote for the real steel shoebox every time.;)

    YES ... I know :rolleyes:


    But Hot Turkey had to decide between NO 3 window ( steel ) and a plastic one.
    He got a plastic one and has turned it into a pretty nice car. He has a thread here on the HAMB about his remarkable progress.

    I'm with everyone else don't get rid of steel for a gl*** body. One other thing to consider do you have a family? You can't fit a family in a Deuce coupe. Tim

    Yea, I noticed that you have palm trees in the back ground of this photo, which got me to thinking must be either Cali or FLA. So, then I took a look at your photo albums and saw the Cali plates. So, be forewarned, if you build a gl*** car in this state, i.e. California, you are going to have to smog it unless you are one of the fortunate few; i.e. one of 500 to receive the coveted smog exempt status.

    Nothing beats real steel.
    Food for thought.:)

    I walked past a '50 Ford that sat up next to a garage every day when I was in High School. Yours look right. I would keep it, and I am a 3w guy.
