Doesn't compliment the car at all. It has "Pep-Boys purchase" written all over it.

It might look much better if the framing was a lot thinner...looks too aftermarket as it sits right now.

I had a 63 my first Corvette. I didn't like it then, it was very difficult to see out of. There was a reason Corvette went to the sinle rear glass, not many people liked them.

For some reason it looks like a modification I'd expect to see in Europe.

Maybe if they threw some "Firestone Wide Oval" white letter tires on it, could look a little more retro.

I'd have to see it with a silver top, not the glass one, and a little thinner framing.
Might look interesting then.
