    Hey, if you want to ship them I'll pinstripe your spots no charge. I'd be honored to have my striping on your car. Here's some of my work.

    I have enjoyed reading this thread, and love your determination. I would pitch in $10 for shipping on the spotlights, to get them pinstriped.

    You could send small stuff to, like the glove box door. I'd be happy to letter something on it if you'd like.

    Man, you took an ugly car and made a killer kustom ride. I dont love the tail lights on it,(your car, you are the one who has to like them) but the rest of it is just jaw dropping.

    That car is way cool. Lamb Orange? Looks like a blazing sunset out west. The Caddy tail lights just scream CUSTOM!
    You will be an instant celebrity anywhere you drive that thing! The girls will all want to go for a ride...............

    Hello guys,
    yes, i know that the 59 caddy tail lights are not the best choise, but when i have deceided to modified the original tail lights, nothing other French parts was nice, and the problem is cool US cars tail lights was to big to fit on my Fregate. The only "easy" smallest parts was the 59 Cadillac tail lights, and of course, you right, RuFFDaWG, they screams Custom....a classic.

    Today, the sunshine is back, and i work on the interior upholstery doors panel.

    My only concern.... with white interior and all the cute french girls that will be riding with you it may be hard to keep them sparkling clean.

    Salut Ricky, merci pour tes liens de ma Fregate sur Megalow, tu parle du vinyl blanc? C'est un produit au mètre utilisé pour les interieurs marin, sièges bateau.

    (The vinyl is use in marine/boat seat upholstery)

  22. Your writing skills are right up there with your ability to do the things you've done to the car. I laugh every time I read your latest post. the car is looking great!!!. One thing, you must get a picture of the cute "French" girl that delivers your postal stuff AND post the pic here for us.

    I agree! Since this is a "kustom from outer space", I'll quote Major West from the Lost in Space movie: "If this is all a dream, why can't there be more girls?"

    Just caught up with this build. Man, what an inspiration. In my circle 'Down Under' you would be called a Legend.
    We have a few backpackers come and go through my place of employment. Each year we have French often work a time along side us. Very friendly and welcoming people I find. And some of the Girls are of course, very easy on the eye.
    Magelle being one such a lass I would have liked to know a whole lot more :p

    Much respect, Man.

    Maybe some orange pipeing on the armrest would give it a lil contrast to the door panel and tie it into the outside of the car
