    Nice Marten! The look is not only cool, but it is so subtle that unless you are really familiar with a '52, you wouldn't know why it looks so good... My compliments to the chef!!

    ...thanks everyone!!

    not easy to find indeed, lucky shot! Found on some sort of Craiglist, used to be a advertise-object for a nightclub

    @Old soul; nothing, only cutoff the fenders and paid for those!
    @RDR & Loco 52 Ragtop; I know both of your cars for sure, they are a great example of how I want my headlights to look like
    @Morac41; really like your build!!
