See where a gentlemen in the Pittsburgh area has an older Olds with a glass panel in the hood. Looks nice with curves, not just a square window. Anyone ever done this? Thanks
Attached (hopefully) are photos of a 1950 Oldsmobile radical custom I helped on. A 1950 Oldsmobile dealer showroom hood was used. It was strictly a set on hood and had no provisions for hinges or latches. A major portion of the plexiglass hood was cut out and grafted to the original hood as an insert. Got lots of looks and great comments. Sorry, I am only able to upload one photo
I haven't done it.. But, my father made several clear plastic hood inserts for Buick division of GM. Back in the sixties. These were for show cars and dealers. The company he worked for made most of Buicks cut/away displays. Seat and body details, cut away engines and transmissions etc.
I tried to make a plexiglass hood for my 34 pickup back in high school. I put it in the "better in theory than in practice" category Sent from my SM-G920R4 using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
