    Hey guys. Can anyone tell me what car this tail light comes from? Thinking about using something like this in the 51 Merc. Thanks

    My opinion is they would look great on a '51 Merc. Do it!

    Sweet! Those look like they were born there.
     
  10. Back up on top tho...
     
  11. Definitely 1956 Chrysler, as stated earlier. And yeah, they'd look tits on a Merc!

    The Merc quarter panel is pretty fat. If anyone has a set, I'd love to find out the dimensions of the tail lights.

    I have a set. They need new lenses. Also have the whole car so I can cut off some surrounding sheetmetal if you need it. Pm if interested.

    I still think theyre too bulky Rob. I also think youre scale might be off in the photoshop. Stick with the '54 Mercs.
