This -49 Pontiac will have Kaiser taillights. Marking the cuts. Should I throw these away? First mockup Lining up the lights Looking good Desided to lover them a bit,about 3/8" Lights up Final welding And something to the front
Those taillights look like they were born there, perfect shape to compliment the fastback body. I would like to see finished pics of the frontend. Looks like the car had a cool paintjob on it, are you going to fully repaint it?
Should I throw these away? Kartsa... I just happen to know a great object for those poncho taillights. Jaypee
you just keep impressing me, over and over again. but you make it look so easy. step one: cut off stock taillights... step two: finish up custom taillights and grab a beer. i'm sure it was very involved, any idea how many hours you have into that project? very cool indeed. if it's not too late, please post a similar 'tech-like' thread for that front end. tred.
Great job! How did you do the tiny "endless lines" inside the scallops? Doesn't look like pinstriping.
Lots of questions,I try to answer in them. First of all,car is not mine.It is owned by Finnish pinstriper called Wizzzard.Maybe he will join here and tell us more about the painting. Here is what we started. I did those Jaguar headlights couple of years a go.He had litlle accident with the car and damaged the grille,so he decided to do some customizing.Her is few sketch he did of the front end. And this is what I have done so far. Tredboy: 35 hours for the tail lights.Start to finish. Chopolds: "endless lines" are pinstriped.I think he made all week of those lines.
