    Hello,
    Wow, a custom tail light arrangement for that 58 Impala. The stock ones were red, white, red. The most popular changeover was to get an extra, stock, red lens and rewire the lights so they all came on at once when the brakes were applied. In order to stay legal with a backup light, we also installed a small bulb light near the license plate. Some just still used the middle bulb, and the back up was not very bright.

    Aussie hot rods--note the right hand drive.Looks like a New South Wales gathering as the 32 roadster in the foreground is Kevin Daley's Pontiac powered car and the 34 coupe next to it is Lynn Arrowsmith's with a 318 poly head Mopar. I should be able to name a few more but this photo dates back quite a while and my memory is fuzzy.

    When I first got my driver's license, I never dreamed I would someday miss cars like this.

    Alleycat I believe belonged to a guy named Steve Gillan.

    Much featured in UK Rod magazines of the time circa 1970 /71.

    A very significant machine in the early U.K. Rod scene.

    Jaguar engine as I recall.

    Great to see it here.
