Check out the set of '57 Caddy "boobs" (that's how the guy had 'em listed) I got today. I haven't had a chance to clean 'em up yet but they look good. He even sent me the "rubbers" too.
Kustombuilder found 'em on Ebay for me. I emailed the seller, after a little dickering we settled on a price. He ended the action early. There were no other bidders yet so no one got hurt. Later he emailed me and asked if I wanted the front license frame for just the cost of shipping ($6.00), I said you bet! That's on it's way.

Here' the look I'm going for.
Anyone recognize this front end?
I've photoshopped it a little. It's from one of the "little books".

That car looks familiar, but I was thinking early R&C.
Sweet find, Donzie! I've been trying to find the right kind of nerf bars for my '57 Effie, do you have any suggestions what cars would have such bars? Just looking for a clean 'n simple, maybe skinny pair to "roll" in front of the front rolling pan.
What's the ride them boobs are going on?

Those "boobs" on that early Chevy pic are 1955 Caddy or 1956 Caddy...the '57 "boobs" are smaller...also known as "Dagmars"!

Here's a concept of what we're going for. There may be a "new" added feature.

Donzie[Yeah they are like 500 each in repro[vette tails]-Is the front end you showed us a 49 50 Olds, instead of a chevy?

got me a set of 58 titties for my pontiac front, but the side pieces are too long. got to looking, and they'll work well on the back, so i'll have dagmars on the ass end of my car. not sure what to do with the rubber holes, mine were toast.

The photo I used is from a 1959 Custom Cars mag. I don't know what year or make it is. The aricle was about custom grilles and showed several different ideas.
Yeah, the tail lights are '58 'Vette. We'll be using just the lenses rather than the whole bezel.
Here's what's going on in the rearend area (again, photoshopped photo).
Bumperettes are from a '63 Riviera. I had several photos on a previous post as to how they are done.

Donzie Love those rear lights .I have been thinking about these, put a red bulb in , french them into the rear bumper?

Donzie

11-06-2003, 09:57 AM

Those could look cool. What are they from? You could run 4. 2 for taillights and 2 for backup lights. Would you put them in the flat panel below the trunk or in the fender?
