Zippi Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 (edited) That is going to look super sharp Glen. Love that 3 window look. Edited June 16, 2022 by Zippi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vintage AMT Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 What a cool concept, only thing is the drip rail catches my eye immediatelly, just looks a little odd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think if the drip rail would have ended at the bottom of the window opening it would look a little better but, I'd buy one ☺ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plowboy Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 I would get rid of the divider on the rear window. It would make it a true three window. I agree with cutting away some of the drip rail also. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
espo Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 I also like the look. The side window shape reminds me of the Willys 3 window. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TransAmMike Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 Yep, the 3 window look is a natural there. I agree with "Zippy" on the drip rail. And Roger, yours is super looking!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldcarfan27 Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 Both of those are tasty. I can see a lot of possibilities with this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're going to chop it, I recommend smoothing away the slight hump in the back for a more streamlined look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beeRS Posted June 16, 2022 Share Posted June 16, 2022 That looks great as a 3-window. Very much like a Willys. The split rear screen gets my thumbs up too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldcarfan27 Posted June 16, 2022 Share Posted June 16, 2022 Here's the Lincoln. Although, I do think the wheelbase is a little long behind the door. The rest is just a stunning inspiration for your 40! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jantrix Posted June 19, 2022 Share Posted June 19, 2022 I think you did a bang up job! Very nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
