Default Night shots

I have to admit, I had bubble lights for a few months, but never really cared for the quality or the round shape, so I did away with them, but i liked the looks of 4 lamps, so I bought 4 original style taillights, but kept the wiring from the bubble lights. Here's a couple of pics, just to give you an idea. Hope it helps ya out




PS- I'm not really sure what some of these guys did to make theirs look so good, but mine never did, Mine looked very cheap. I bought them from Ecklars for $70.00

oh, and here mine are during the day

Bubble, bubble, here's another bubble car. What do you all think about the molded in spoiler?

Not too bad...makes the back end look a little Camaro-ish though.

That's why it's "Plum Different" You did mean an Opel GT from the late 60's - early 70's of course!

My intent was to make it look a bit more "Muscle Carish"
