    Looking for some different tail light treatments for 49-54 Chevy's. Want to change the look of the rear of my 50.

    Hey Greaser,
    I just got a 50 Deluxe .Yours car sits really nice from what i can see in your avatar. What did you lower with? I'm worried 3" blocks won't be enough in the rear.
    Thanks.

    I used stock with blue dots, but mounted them as low as I could. Just a subtle change

    lowdown that is the look.I seen them before and they just flow with the early chevy.. I am looking around now for quarter sections now..
     
  13. Keep in mind that the qtrs are totally different on 49-50, 51-52 and 53-54. What works one on one may not on the other. One of my favs on a 49-50 is get a set of 49-51 Ford wind splits and graft them in. The Ford taillights can be frenched also. Todd

    Can't really see the the tail lights on that last one but you can see the caddy quarters. Lights do look awesome, just can't find a proper photo of them at the moment
