    It has always amazed me that some people put square lights on round cars. Your "new" lights are not only very cool, they are a vast improvement.

    Kind of breezed through this thread, but I didn't see anything about it. Has anyone put 49 Merc tail lights on a 46-48 Ford? I've seen a couple of pics of it but I'm trying to figure out how to make the mounts for it.
     
  16. Another FINE example of ‘41 Studebakers on a ‘40 Ford.

    Buick lights in a homemade surround molded into Olds quarters. These are on Leland Grantz' '50 Chev convert that he bought new and had Winfield work on. I wonder how many car folks notice the gas door.... Done Chev 018.JPG

    Do not know if it has been done, but the early VW taillights are small and have a nice glass lens...would work on a lot of fat fender cars.
