Does anyone remember in the 1950/60s you could buy & fit a sun screen hood at the top of the front windscreen ? Does anyone know if you can still get these,I'd love to start up the trend again they did the job well & looked quite smart.Ron.
no OG the hood used to be clipped on the outside at the top of the windscreen I think it was fastened to the car on both sides ( in front of car doors ) with some sort of clip arrangements.Ron.
Yes I do remember them Ron they where the in-thing at that time, I think they would have to modify them now regards the fuel saving, we had them on the HGVs Mercs, they where split at each side on the top to let the airflow through.
I had one of those on a 1957 cresta e with a side mounted chrome searchlight, left it with a mate about 20 years ago,
who cares about economy they looked great.
