55 Chevy Pickup

[Wayne Buck]

This one started off as a "quickie" build, but it turned out to be a really fun project and I ended up adding a few more odds an ends than I was originally planning on.

I wanted to make it look like a low budget weekend warrior from the 60's.

Now that looks cool What did you use for the signal lights? They look like LEDS?

I didn't have a complete kit when I started this and found everything in my parts boxes, but I'm almost positive they're just the stock lights that come with the truck. You're right, they do look like LED's. I still have to find some tail lights for it.

Thanks again for all of the kind words everyone!
