I picked up the tail lights from the painter today.......made rubber gasket for mounting and assembled them with the LED lights......they turned out like the model...LOL









The car is finished at the Upholstry shop and I will be picking it up tomorrow.......one little bump in the road....I mounted the battery (dry cell) under the rear seat, but there was clearance issues, so I have to make a recessed pan to drop it down below the floor board.......Darn........the new gaskets showed up for the back glass so I can those installed over the weekend........Just about done .....(I Hope!!)
