Checkout these lights

I stop in to look at some car for sale and this was there in the back of the show room. It was not for sale but worth taking pictures of. They had a sign that said the headlights were from a Thunderbird.

Re: Checkout these lights

Very interesting. Something different. I personally don't like the look of the lines at the top of the light, compared to the truck's profile. They look nice head-on, though.

Somehow they just look right with the rounded fenders, sort of like 40 Fords, Mercs and Lincolns.

And after you admire the headlights, have a look at the the way they did the windshield. That is cool. Almost flush mount. Nice lookin' rig. Thanks for posting it.

Re: Checkout these lights

The salesman told me the owner spent $275k building it. Next time I am out that way I will get some more pictures.
