The taillights look like they'd be bone stock if I didn't know what they really should look like!

So, Finished up the '69 T-bird I've been working on so back on this one. Did up the headlights. The bezels are from a Revell '59 Chevy with Lucas lenses. I've also been working on the custom interior between other things over the last few months. The seat inserts aren't quite there yet but they're coming along.

Headlight treatment is perfect, Steve. Interior looks promising!

Nice fade job, and those headlights look perfect! Did you drill out the bezels and add lucas buckets, or keep the '59 chevy buckets and add a lucas-style central post to them?

I used the lenses from the AMT custom '57 Chrysler 300 kit. It has the bullets molded into the custom buckets so I just snapped them out and glued them in the holes in the lenses before gluing the whole thing in the Chevy bezels.
,, and when I say "glueing" I mean with Tamiya clear acrylic.

I think Chrysler had already done a pretty fine job designing this car but your changes really improved it. I especially like the rear redesign. Gary

Ultra-coolness! What are the wheels from? AMT '62 T-bird or Moebius Chrysler 300? Great stance too.
I've got JoHan "60 and '61 Chryslers - may have to copy your chop technique on one of them!
