Two very goofy looking tail-lights
Shaved deck handle
and a few other randoms.......

 

I'm thinking 52 olds quarters and 55 plymouth taillights
like on Kurts merc

 

On the fence about this one

 

There is a thread about this do a search and you will find more pics.

 

I searched and didn't find anything... Why didn't you respond with " I don't have any pics"?

Updated my sig for you sweetheart...

 

Skirtchaser on here used 55-56 ford lower 1/4s changed the spears and used 56 olds tailites I will try to get him to post some pic looks killer

 

personally,other then stock frenched, i think these cars are really hard to have custom tail lights and have them look good. Reason being is the quarter panel is soo tall. I think the windsplit is the only thing that really breaks it up otherwise it just looks too tall and vast.
But for some reason i think convertibles and vics have more options, i think it has to do with the roof being flat.
I think what helps break up the quarter panel is radiusing the wheel well and maybe sidetrim and scallops maybe.

 

im not really fealing the caddys because it makes the quarter panel look even taller

 

also the frenching kit they sell for these is lame, the edge ends up being too thin in my opinion

 

Aye, Mate. What ever happened to the hand-formed 1/4" rod and skin???
I saw a '49 Ford with late Caddy vertical frenched lenses...looked like something modern.
Respected the work, (was flawless!) but the era was wrong.
(kinda like a Datsun at an NSRA show)

 

my '51 project-'59 Caddie tail lites

 

here's mine with studebaker fins, not finished yet..didnt get to the taillight area yet,

and here's CHOPMERC's victoria, one of the very few shoeboxes i like with packard taillights, they don't work on most shoeboxes, but look awesome here.

 

finnrodder has the right idea on how to french stock lights

 

I cant take the credit of those taillights.Like i said,it was like that when i bought it.The previous owner and his friends should have the credit for them.But,i like how they are done and i am not going to change them.

 

I can agree,thats why think I'm have a tough time finding pics....
thanks for the post guys...
