I think I read the new Taxi of Tomorrow will have a big window on
top.That will be so those people can see the Ice and Snow on there in the wintertime.I remember some Ford cars back in the 1950s had two plexiglass windows on the hoods of some of those cars.I never could understand the point of that.A styling gimmick, I guess. cuhulin

Some 1950s Ford cars had two windows mounted in the hood so people could
see the engine without opening the hood.I have only seen one up close before, way back when I went down town to a movie.The car was parked on the street. cuhulin
