They will have all kinds of lamps and lamp ideas to choose from. I saw some tali lamps the other day that were in the shape of the chevy bow tie with led bulbs. Very sharp looking.

I made card board templates of the curves of the rear fenders to guide me. I found 2 41 buick eight tail lights that worked great. I built the edge of the top of the fender out to meet the conture of the lights and also a cover box for inside the fender to keep all try. My first thought was to french in something but this looks so much better and I have not seen it done before. the line of the 41 lights follows the exact conture of the cab by the gas cap. good luck. | | |
