Customs A little progress on my Chevy...New Quarters and Lights

  1. haha...funny thing about that pic is that it makes my car look somewhat decent...it wasn't!!


    Thanks Chopolds...that means a lot coming from someone of your caliber. And the info you gave me on those other tail lights is proving VERY helpful...


    Good to hear from ya Romain...working on that bumper now. :)

    I kept the piece that comes off the end of the stock quarters that I'll weld back on once I know how far back I need to move the bumper bracket opening. Then I get to make a splashpan to fit...Chopold's did a great thread on using a hammerform to make one that's gonna be a lifesaver.


    Any of you guys who want to do something like this, but think you can't, I say go for it! Do your homework, ask the right questions, take some risks, and you might just surprise yourself. I'm a hack compared to a lot of guys on here...I had to cut out pieces that didn't look right (there are still a couple that are bothering me), and I don't have the $$ for all the fancy metalshaping tools, but I'm stoked I did it myself.

    JJ, here's a shot from behind...
