    Personally I think quad headlights on an A are one of the ugliest possable features, have you seen more than 6 cars in period magazines with them? There is a reason, they look bad.

    Sod it i'm going to go for it and get me some quad headlights, if i don't like it i'll go back the 7'' ones.A pair of nerf bars is in order i think as well as a custom insert in the deuce shell.
     
  4. 60's hotrod--This is just a suggestion, but---If -you have a grillshell now, I would put it away somewhere and build a new grillshell from round tubing and sheet metal, and mold the headlight pods into it. If you want to bring it off properly, you will have to mold some tapered tunnels into the sides of the hood. In a best case scenario, you will create a quad headlighted masterpeice, and be admired by all your peers. In a worst case scenario, you will have gained some metalworking skills, and can easily revert back to the stock grillshell and stock or no hood panels.---Brian

    Brian building a new grille shell is a bit beyond my meger metal work skills,I know what you are sayin' great idea as i really love that fllake GREEN T coupe that was built in Finland and now lives in France the one with the Edsel grille,but as i said it's a bit beyond me!!
