56 Oldsmobile Headlights

I have a buddy with a set of 56 Olds headlight bezels that I can get pretty cheap. Does anyone have pics of these on a 49-54 Chevy? I dont think I have ever seen it.

Thanks!

 

Check out Custom54 here on the HAMB, I think his has olds headlights....

 

My new car has them

 

Here is a couple shots of my 52 chevy with them.

 

I sold a set with fenders for a old chebbie.looks gooood toooo. Got to have a cut of the fenders to line with the bezels
"AND THE BOWTIE ROLLS ON"

 

WOW those look nice. Too bad he doesnt have fenders too. Looks like I have some fab work ahead of me!

 

This thing looks amazing, great metalwork.


I have a set of '56 rings and front fender sections to use on my '53 Ford as well. They look great and were used during the period too, great choice for an early 50's Chevy.

 

If you search you should find another thread on this same subject, because I asked the same question here several years ago. I ended up changing my mind because it's something people have done, and I happened on a set of lights I don't think I've ever heard of being done on a 49-52 Chevy.

 

The 56 olds headlights will defenitly work well on your chevy but i recomend you peak the fenders or use the smoother 55 olds headlight rings. These pics are of a 53 olds with 56 olds headlight with peaked fenders. Sorry it's not a chevy but should be close enough to get a better idea.

 

Here's McPhail's old purple chevy....
