I've always been partial to the 5 window, but if someone is going to give me one, I won't complain about either.

I love a clean 3 window, but faced with the choice I'd go with the 5 window, without hesitation.

3W for sure, I'm going to take heat for this I'm sure but I have always thought that the 5W body lines are just to 'plain'.

if you look at my album you might conclude incorrectly. this is like which kid would i choose! personally i believe a full fendered 3w with substantial rake ,otherwise stock appearing body is the epitome of hot rods, even more than the deuce roadster (maybe geographic raised in upstate NY). i would be forever grateful to receive either. let me know if you need shipping address.

I'll take a 3 Window

Like this:




or like a '32 that I think is certainly a benchmark of great '32s...Doyle Gammel's:




There are just way too many that I like.
