The headlights are Riviera units laid horizontally, which I find too cool! Thanks guys, front bumper is a modified 57 Desoto. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
espo Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 Great idea for the tail lights. What was it you used for the source of the lens ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blunc Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 the Aurora Parts pack wire wheels are a real treasure IMHO, and their chrome reverse steels are top notch too. great choice for a custom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KanelKustoms Posted April 3, 2021 Author Share Posted April 3, 2021 I had an idea, thought, daydream whatever that would not leave me alone. REALLY wanted to have a chrome surround with a lip on it for the taillights I have never tried incorporating brass and copper into a model but figured it was worth trying. .005 brass sheet and.030 copper wire. This is still roughing it in but I think it’s going to be ok I try and get the plastic to shape as much as possible before going to filler. For ease and not hearing the wife about fumes I used milliput for the shaping l. Really starting to like it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
