Actually I put rrectangular headlights in it in the mid 70's when they first came out. It was a novelty thing I guess. Somethin' different @ the time.

Hey, dont pic on square headlights! Eagle has 4, so did the Olds. Ok, so maybe their factory, but combined with a 110 Amp alternator, Xtra vision low beams and Silverstar high beams, I could see the deer almost before they saw me:D. What i dont understand is why people put Flush headlights in street rods? In some they look kind of cool, but on a lot of them they look Ugly and they have a tendancy to fog over due to poor seals. Can anyone explain this?
