Customs Tail lights for my corvette

Had 10" at my farm in Wisconsin. Spent all morning with the Willys Jeep plowing out. Then off to the shop to work on my T-Bird.

 

Yeah I agree! The 59 caddy taillights are the taillight of many customs ! But also have to agree they are probably almost as overused as corvette valve covers.

As a youngster i dreamed of owning a car with those taillights though.

Looks Great! Gary

 

It would take some engineering and a spherical (hemispherical?) light assembly, but I think it would be cool if someone could rig up 2 of these diamond-shaped lenses to wag back and forth like the eyes of an old Kit-Cat Clock whenever the turn signals are used.

 

They look great man, and the tie in to the interior makes them even better to me.

 

I like em a lot! Lippy

 

The lights fit the customs of the era for the car. We have to bear in mind that customs of the later 50s and early to mid '60s were cars built to excess.

I cannot say that they are my favorite lights, but I don't hate 'em.

I know that this is not exactly kosher for our traditional desires but if the lenses get burnt by a normal bulb one could use an LED.

 

Agreed those look good

I love Mark's stuff.. been following the thread for a bit.. funny we don't see your car .. Mr Debbie Downer you get that reward... keep the updates coming Mark.. dare to be different .. people don't like the 40 Ford bumpers on my 36 been told that a few times. at Good guys . do I care no, I like it .. two thumbs up Mark.. I dig it

 

Pffft... only thing wrong with this vette is those hideous wheels! Needs a set of those D spoke torque thrust on it!

 

Figured you would say they're better than weld wheels lmao!

 

Try the "Ray Guns" with a "V" shape to the white, or a round ring instead of flat. Play with the proportions a bit.

 

Hells Bells, Mark, if you're gonna go for the gusto, then go for the gusto. Bob's '57 had Eldo taillights, and wait for it....... The dog dishes were..... Edsel !!!! And I loved 'em......
