Only my opinion, you have to be satisfied, but I prefer it laid back.

I like the straight up it feels like there is more room, but as Jim says whatever you are happy with.
 
I like it straight up but it's not about what I like, it's your bucket and only you know what you like.
 
My choice would be laid back a bit, not too far.
Having said that there is nothing wrong with straight up since it's the way most are.
However... that one looks like it's leaning forward. If it's mock-up.. ok. If not, I don't think it looks good.
Just my opinions. Not those of the management.
And anyone who can get that truck inside can do just about anything they want anyway!
 
Truck is a good one and you got the right motor in that Great looking Bucket.......Do what you like on the windshield don't even wonder what anyone else thinks................my two cents......

Here is a pretty famous T with a tilt to the windshield.

And there is the beauty of personal opinion and being asked for it. :rolleyes:
Famous or not.. I still don't like it leaning forward.
I'd take it though!!!
I'm sure not everyone will like everything about mine... if I ever get it done.

Everyones opinion counts as the question was asked.Keep plugging away you'll git er done.
 
Straight up gives it more of a classic look and I bet blocks more wind.
 
Rick, I like it however you decide to finish it. Because your T is your expression.

I'm back to work on Bruce's green skin...

heres my little bit
All Fads should have a forward slopping screen. Its one of the distinguishing factors about a Fad T. I had a massive argument about this with my build buddy who like everything in line or at 90 degrees. Yep hes right... it all looks like its meant to be BUT the one thing about a T if its old style is the lean of the screen.

By the way I just love that bucket

LEAN OF THE SCREEN

Rick, Glad you entered that last post about going to a taller windshield, as the short one does you no good to speak of, still too many bugs in your face, or your passengers, and that is NOT GOOD!! hehe Women hate the harsh blast of the wind... As for those that say it is leaning forward, it is supposed to be at the exact same angle as your firewall, one in the same as they say. Thanks I think your ride is a very Beautiful car, and now even more-so :) windshield brace rods make a T Bucket a T Bucket, what more can I say?? NOTE: Make then with rubber muffler hanger washers at the frame end, so as to give them a bit of movement, keeps them from breaking... if you want a pic, I will E-M you one... Have fun with your ride...
