Show me your GP white car W/OUT window tint

I am about to re-install my glass (which is tinted) in my '79 SC after an extensive interior re-vamp. In a previous post I asked for advice on whether or not to keep the tint and received many replies. I just have not seen any actual GP white cars in person or photographs that were not tinted. If I could see what a non-tinted car looks like (compared to mine, presently tinted), my decision on whether to keep the tint or not will be much easier.

So if you have em please post em.

Looks whiter than it is. I've been considering dark tint. I like contrasts and will be going with black fuchs eventually also.

Ted is the bottom picture you posted non tinted window? Dave, is the pic you posted non-tint? If so, I am going to get rid of my tint because your car looks good.

My car no longer has the Turbo wing, but winter refuses to give up here in the Northeast, so I don't have any other pics yet.

I'd like to piggy back a request for cars with matching color wheels and "Carrera" scripts.

Thanks.

The bottom car is a pic of SWB Sam's old turbo look. It's been a while but I don't recall it having tinted windows. Agree some of the other cars in this post with black interiors and the correct lighting/reflection give the appearance of some window tint.

Thanks guys

Phil yours looks sweet both ways, I think I am going to remove my tint as it looks a little too "over the top" for the look I want. I am getting close to finishing up a new interior that is all black (including a new headliner). I think with the tint I would feel like I was in a dark closet with the tint and the all black interior combined.
