Neon On Classic Car Parts
Hello all. im new on this site and would like to get some opinions on these new neon signs im making using classic car doors, hoods etc. The ford sign is on a 1060 f100 hood and the peace sign is on an early model VW Bug door. I would value anyone's opinion?

IMO you need to work on your glass bending to get the curves super smooth, and use smaller diameter glass tubing. I think about all of the neon sign art I've seen used nominal 1/2" OD glass. Your straight sections aren't really straight.Roger
Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.

ok guys here is the 1960 Ford f-100 hood with the ford emblem. I still need to do some tweaking on the letters and blue oval. this is done with LED Neon Flex 24v. This is not glass. very durable.
Merry Christmas ya'll
