Clear plastic would be like a green house it will be 140F in that thing.

AC big enough to cool that will take a lot of power engine will need swapped out for a bigger one.

I would build it so it could be removed real easy and use it only in cold weather.

I'm planning something similar, but am making the frame from steel. I plan to use thin plexiglass for the windshield, and a coated polyester fabric on the roof. The rear of the cab will only be partially closed in to allow for ventilation. The sides will be removable, and I will use 20 gauge clear vynl for them.
