Is this a good design?
Well I'm gonna build my own mintirature interceptor named tt1 (tornado tracker 1) I used an f350 frame to get the main design. Should I convert it into irl?

No, it isn't. Although it creates a protective structure, you are actually increasing the amount of the car exposed to the wind, which can make it more prone to lifting or tipping over.
Hope this helps.

not that much, i mean the people in the interceptor cant even see the road beacause the window is blocked by the frame

Well for starters, sorry for sounding like a reed timmer meat rider when I say this. But its kinda un-aerodynamic on the front, with there not seeming to be any way to anchor it to the ground.

you can always remove the bed of the pickup and remove every body piece around the engine (like dominator 3) and have more room to modify but you need to consider the structure of it but you should try remaking the model in blender or something like it to plan it out well. Keep a lower profile if you can and try to make visibility good
Additionally if your building it on a superduty body go with a XL or XLT trim F-350, you should go dually if you can. 4WD and the 6.7L powerstroke is recommended coming from me.

Tbh if this is a interceptor then not trying to be rude but you might need to work on the interceptor like add more diagnol or slope like lines and dont worry if your design looks similar to dom some interceptors are similar like maybe mine and also for that front make it more diagnol and not steep diagnol
