Hi fellas, just need an honest opinion regarding the front screen..................it`s only dry fitted at the mo btw!!

Does it look alright........................the reason i ask is because in England a tinted front screen would be illegal, in the states and maybe some other countries possibly not!!!!
Also uncertain about the gold frame...............trouble is if i change the colour of it it will throw out the gold theme........so,

1) Do i stick with what you can see,
2) Do i change it to a clear screen,
3) Do i alter the frame colour and a clear screen,

Looks good! IMHO

Not a car guy myself...... but I can appreciate great craftsmanship !

It's a hot rod.... so a FEW illegalities are to be expected! LoL

NORM.
 
Yep. Fully tinted windshield here in the US is illegal but I'm with Norm, It looks cool with it tinted.

Hey Bud, I had a gold tint on my 40 Ford pickup street rod. The windscreen was a lighter shade than the other windows though.
I had cops stop and look at my ride on occasion when I was pulled over for gas or rest stop and they never said a word about the tint. ;D

Yours looks fine to me.

The tint is, indeed, illegal on the windshield in many states.
But she does look good with it.
Would not touch the frame
 
Thanks Grendels and Q..................seems like it`s an overwhelming majority vote to keep it as is, thanks again guys... ;D

Oh Yeah Boots,I started to built my first rod when I was 14 so it would be ready as soon as I got my permit.
The pickup was my last,had to sell it to pay the doctor bills after my heart attacks.
Not a very good picture but you get the idea.

I'm definitely not a fan of hot rods but I will be looking closely and follow your build.
Cheers
 
I don't know about today but back in the 60's it was quite popular for some drag cars, specially Gassers to have colour tinted glass. Just do what you like. Nobody here will fine you.LOL
