    Factory Headlights

     



    I decided to try to use the factory headlights and buckets, set up street rod style. I installed one today. They move with the steering. The tubing between the shock mounts is just a temporary brace as another punched support will be added.

    Went ahead and installed the other headlight, though I am not sure that I will keep them. Added bracing to the shock towers but still need to finish welding and smooth. Removed temporary brace. Trimmed the bottom of the doors and started a template for a rocker panel.

    Made a steering wheel today. Very strong and uses a quick release coupling.
