    They look great. And as they aren't one of the four officially approved styles of traditional tail lights, a big congrats for thinking outside the box! I only wish they were bigger. Where did they come from? Gary

    You're right those are cool, kinda unique too, any idea what they're off of? What are your dash inserts made of?

    The dash inserts are made of phenolic and the tail ights came off of a 1940 tractor trailer (trailer) I am going to rebuild the lights and see how brite they are compared to the ponitacs

    Nice coupe, my avatar is a 28 coupe I built in the mid 90's, had a V8 60 and didn't preform like I wanted so I sold it in 1997. Started a 30 Sport Coupe with an 8BA flathead about five years ago and got sidetracked on a 60 mild custom T-Bird but back on it now.
