There was a guy on the HAMB years ago, he did some serious metalwork, maybe on the west coast ? One car he was working on, was (IIRC) a mid 70's Firebird. The part that sticks in my mind was he used LARGE prewar headlights tucked in behind the grill opening. Anyone remember the car, and his name ? I think he fell off the end of the earth. Edit: he was selling Duvall style windshields, and other aluminum castings, at one point. His user name was just one word.
Might have been, I remember Sellers got banned. Still looking for the car with the "goofy" headlights. Maybe it was Conder ? Sounds like something he would do.
He posted something, on topic, the car I am thinking of was in the background, under construction. He did mention the headlights, they looked prewar. Someone must have asked about them. I want to do a photoshop with that idea, into something pre 65. The idea sounds insane, until you see it.
Tim Conder was working on a pro touring Firebird called "Project Blackbird" several years ago, it did have big '33 Ford headlights. I don't know if it was ever finished, but I remember seeing it on his IG. He seems to have fallen off the internet.
Here you go, it was a '68: https://www.pro-touring.com/threads/90117-Project-Blackbird-1968-Pontiac-Firebird
