Bhigdog Posted March 8, 2005 Share Posted March 8, 2005 Does anyone know if the plastic top on the 54 Ford Skyliners came in more than one tint/color? Thanks, Bob. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CharlieF Posted March 8, 2005 Share Posted March 8, 2005 The 1949-1959 Ford Car Parts and Accessories Catalog Copyright 1964 lists Part Number BM 6050054-B as "Glass-Roof" Tinted. It does not indicate any color. However the -B somewhat indicates that there may also have been an -A listing that might have been different. Or the -B may have simply been a slightly different replacement for the -A. Unfortunately I do not have an earlier catalog that might have listed the -A part. As far as I know I have never seen anything other than the green tinting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bhigdog Posted March 8, 2005 Author Share Posted March 8, 2005 Thanks Charlie, I've only seen green also. There is a repro top on EBay that's described as gray, the pix looks pretty gray also. Does anyone know who's selling the repro's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R Walling Posted March 8, 2005 Share Posted March 8, 2005 A friend of mine had a 1954 ford with a factory installed clear window in the hood to show off the "New V8 Motor". He wishes he had it now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
West Peterson Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 Roger,I believe that see-through hood would have been dealer installed, not factory. They were quite common. Dealer's (not just Ford) bought them to put on the show-room car(s). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
