Projects 33 chevy 3w....time for a cool change

thanks jim. i have a bunch of the lenses and i will use a 2057na bulb for the color.

good idea!

 

Man you are serious about the Red aren't you, even your fire extinguisher isn't Red, all this time I just thought you were kidding.

 

i did paint the motor red......like the first sbc.

 

Just realized that the only Green thing on my car is the plastic battery disconnect knob so I guess I'm almost just like you .

 

a shot with the bulb lit

 

Does the trim piece look like this?

 

@BIG-JIM the aluminum is exactly the stuff i used. the black trim i used did not have the extra lip.

 

Looking good, Teddy. Really like the truck parking lamps!

 

thanks!. i just need to get them in the right spot. when i hold them up there they look out of place. i think i need to paint them first, so they "blend in".

 

Amazing how a little paint changes everything, isn't it? Not that my opinion is worth much, but I think they'll blend really well with the overall style & feel of your coupe.

 

What did he paint?
Did he finally give in and painted the rims ... RED? Lol

 

Yeah I have a local buddy that just put one in and the aluminum looks the same but it's about half the size and the cover that I have has the lip and is not as stiff. It's also smooth where as the Juliano's is textured. He also had some of the fake leather and it was twice the thickness as the one I have. So it looks like it's a juliano's kit for me.

 

i know you cringed when i put the L.E.D.s in.

Not you too?

i like the julianos kit. the one i reused is 33[?] years old.
i did get a roll of the cover stuff recently with a bunch of stuff i bought. did you need it? i can't remember the color but i will check tomorrow.

 

Did someone say Red Rims?

 

I may if its long enough for a sedan and its black.

 

not black. do you have the track? the trim can be found on line.

 

I don't have anything yet. I was looking for a lower cost alternative to their kit.

 

painted the turn signal lights and the bezels.

 

my nephews stopped by and i took them for a ride. the youngest [11] is a natural musician. can pick up and play just about any instrument. the oldest is on leave from the coast guard and this was the first time he has seen the car finished. good to hang with them.

 

Car does look better with someone younger in it!

 

Its funny, think so to.

And I also think that Ted looks younger after the first drive!

 

Whoo?!?? Wheres my shoutout. I didn't get to ride but i was still there!!!

No fish! No fish caught!

 

I know someone who's never caught a red fish that's for sure. But his Father would have.

 

one fish, two fish, red fish, blue fish.
it was catch and release only till December 1, since they just stocked the river. season opens in april.

 

Here's your opening for the blues story and copper tubing pole. Bob

 

too off topic. i can't believe you remember that!
