Man, that surely is ambitious, but I love early 50's Roadmasters. There is a beautiful light silver/green one on your side of the pond that I absolutely love.

Not much to update on this one. I have decided to go with 53 Buick lights on this one. At first I thought about using round lights. When you look at the pictures, (compared with the left round light) maby you understand why i will go with the 53 lights.

The '53 lights are a good choice to go with the rest of the front end styling. Keep up the good work!

Oldsmobile 50/51 lights would also work quite nice on that one.

Agreed, Buick lights look better. Hard to Argue With the Harley Earl Designs or influenceS altogether. What a truly ambitious project, that’s paying off big dividends with the “Eye Candy”! Thanks for sharing this gem with all of us, this too cool to hide!!

Not much to show. Slow progress on this but have been working on the front end and it’s getting close to what i want. Still a bit rough and needs a lot of work. Also got the interior design done and started the work to get everything to fit with the body. I need to change the rear fenders/skirts to get the right size and shape. Over all it’s starting to look more and more like a Buick.

It definitely looks like it's a custom Buick. Keep up the good work. Those grille teeth and the curved lower side trim rock.

I really like how the taillights and rear bumper look...very substantial!
