Finally something to show

[juvius]

got something else to show... i finished putting the chrome rings that i got from Csaba on my gauges and got rid of the clock for a veglia volt meter

[MrJD]

scrapped the vette lights idea... ordered some smaller red (4inch) round glow ring led lights and the perfect sized steel tube to make buckets out of. i'll post pics when they get here.

Might find that a mix or the two will look nice.

[juvius]

might.. but i scrapped the idea because i couldnt find anything that was nice and round for buckets that big around.

interior floors and walls done. I've used por15 in the past, but instead of using it, i decided to try SEMS Rust Shield. I bought it because it's cheaper and i know sems makes really good products. It coats really well (nice and thick). It's paintable as is (unlike por15), it's not photosensitive like por15 and a quart for $30 did the entire floor. Here are the results:

Post some pix of the tail light install! It's awesome!!!

[juvius]

lol... as requested.. here is an update on my light situation... i decided to go with some 4.3 inch glow ring led tail. i found a place online that had the perfect inner dimension pipe for the lights i chose. so i ordered four 4 inch long pieces to make buckets out of. I have started, but still have plenty more time i need to invest into it.

here is a picture of one of the lights in the bucket:


here is a picture of a bracket i threw together so i could make sure the buckets would be square with the car:


and here are the buckets tacked onto the car: (i still have to fill in the open areas and cut the buckets flush, but i think it's going ok so far)
