    As long as it's rolling down the highway, does it really matter what it's made of? Glass cars have been keeping this hobby alive for 40 years at least.

    IMG_0334.jpeg I was itching for a 33/34 three window for years, as @grdra1 said that don’t come that often at an affordable price here in Australia, so I bit the bullet and built a glass one. I was very careful to use as many original parts as possible, I also fitted wind out windshield, exposed door hinges & operational cowl vent. I was very happy with the outcome & people always have to tap when I tell them it’s glass.

    Both the 5w and your 3w are very cool.
     
  11. Hmmm. It was simply an observation, I’ve noticed you can’t handle people pointing out you may be mistaken about something.

    As for what you think about me, I could care less.

    If a moderator gets wind of all this bickering the thread could get closed.
    It happens!

    If you have a glass car, the magnetic sign you have to advertise your business won't stick:(.

    So, it's "grumpy old bastards" then. Can't argue with that one around here. I'm one of those myself.
    Still, it's probably not a good idea to poke the bear and attract it's attention. Just sayin'....;)

    For some reason I just keep thinking, Friends don't let Friends Net while drinking. But if you have no friends you can do as you please, I guess.

  30. Glass or steel, if you enjoy driving the car why worry about what it's worth at the end of the day?

    IMHO you would be hard pressed to put a value on the time spent behind the wheel regardless of the construction, BTW we all know what opinions are like! lighten up and enjoy the ride! HRP
