I'm always amazed at the ingenuity of WWII GIs, some of which started the post-war custom car and hot rod movement.
In the other hand, I'd bet there were a few donors for the cockpit enclosure...given the likelihood of "war weary" and battle damaged machines.
It would be interesting to for someone to make a replica...either an actual b-17 part (are there any out there that aren't being used as part of a project?) or a new build section..either from an airframe component maker (I shudder to think of the cost) or a non-airworthy component like the guys in the UK who build cockpit sections.
Failing that, a 1/48 scale model.
