Modlbldr Posted October 30, 2021 Posted October 30, 2021 (edited) Does anybody know of a kit source or aftermarket supplier for this tail light? If not, I suppose that I can scratchbuild a set. I want to put a set on a build I have in mind. Thanks for any info. Later- Edited October 30, 2021 by Modlbldr
4mula1fan Posted October 30, 2021 Posted October 30, 2021 I recall a lot of builders like Chopper made tails out of red toothbrushes. They plugged, shaped,and polished them.
Mark Posted October 30, 2021 Posted October 30, 2021 Where is everyone getting these clear red toothbrush handles? I haven't seen one in many years, have one set aside but I got it out of a very OLD parts box...

The tail lights on the real car were from a '51 Olds 98. I doubt you'll find another set apart from the Modelhaus kit but the red lenses would be easily cut from a piece of round clear red sprue.

Thanks for the info. I'll have to either keep an eye out for a set on ebay or just make my own. As always, if anyone has a set or the Modelhaus Litton 49 Ford for trade, hit me up, please. Later-
