In Sweden it goes by the name "Kungsvetten"

 

I’m looking for photos of mid-year Corvettes with molded in headlight buckets and headlights relocated to the front grill area. What were folks doing for the grill? Just t******* the original to clear the lights? Something custom? No grill at all?

All of the above options were used, I suspect. Thank you!

 

My cousin just hid the lights behind the grille of his '63.

 

Edgewater, Cleves, Ohio.

 

I rember an article in Rod &Custom. They bonded in the flip lights and used the chrome trim and buckets from a '65 Impala cut into the underside of the original flip housing and trimmed the grill to it. Looked pretty good.

 

I got an email about this car. I don't know anything about it. If I had the money I would try to own it.
Maybe one of you guys need it.

Looks to have an interesting flip front end.
