datsunfreak Posted January 20, 2017 Report Share Posted January 20, 2017 With a set of mushroom shaped windows I could be convinced Where does one get those? It originally had teardrop windows in it that were busted. We welded up the holes because we couldn't find any more... Finally out of paint jail and reassembly starts next week. There's talk of the Chickenhawk getting a temporary eviction so we can do the brakes and stuff on this. Will be much easier inside... You can see in this pic that the paint has a little bit of pearl in it... 2 Quote Link to comment
Lockleaf Posted January 21, 2017 Report Share Posted January 21, 2017 Here's one Seller. http://performancewarehouse.com.au/index.php?route=product/category&path=327 I searched "van bubble window" and there seemed to be a number of vendors 1 Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted January 22, 2017 Report Share Posted January 22, 2017 Here's one Seller. http://performancewarehouse.com.au/index.php?route=product/category&path=327 I searched "van bubble window" and there seemed to be a number of vendors I have seen bubble windows, just not teardrop bubble windows. We wanted to see if we could keep it as is. Now that they are already welded up, who knows... :rofl: Quote Link to comment
dimlight65 Posted January 22, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2017 I searched for the pentagonal ones when I had the Dajiban, Mr. Wiggly. As Datsunfreak points out, now that the holes are filled and covered in paint, I doubt I'll be going back with bubble windows. Then again, seeing the look on the face of the motherfucker who painted the thing while taking a jig-saw to his work MIGHT just be worth it. 2 Quote Link to comment

datsunfreak Posted January 24, 2017 Report Share Posted January 24, 2017 Just to ask, why purple,.. It has been a lifelong dream of his to paint a car Plum Crazy purple. I have talked him out of it at least a dozen times. This time, I caved. :rofl: You don't care for it? I like it. I think it works well on 60s American iron with a lot of curves...

Back home in Wisconsin not really a big deal, but here in the south, will get a lot of unwanted attention. But of the guy is happy that is all that counts. Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted January 25, 2017 Report Share Posted January 25, 2017 not really a matter of like or dislike. Back home in Wisconsin not really a big deal I disagree. Some rabid Packers fan might see a van in Vikings colors and do something really drastic. Like maybe say something rude. Then apologize. :rofl: Quote Link to comment

IF by chance a Vik fan some how gets a ticket to a packers vikings game at Lambo field, odds are the person is going to hear hope you have a good game. Unlike in Dallas where the person might get an egg bath before the game. But there are rabid fans, house inside and out, car in packers colors, in the winter dye the snow packers colors.
