    My '73 Firebird Tail Lights in 3D

     



    Here are a couple of renderings of my '73 Firebird tail lights. I had an offer I couldn't refuse to have them CNC cut out of aluminum so I modeled them up in a 3D CAD program and they are just about ready for try out. Check out the renders and let me know what you think.


    I have had some interest from others in mass producing them. That may be a possiblity if there is enough of a response.
    If you have any questions you can email me direct at:

    Thanks for looking.

    No interest at all in anything like this huh? I can model anything you guys would like manufactered or custom made.
    Here is some custom chassis work I am doing for a customer.
    I can't go into a lot of detail because it hasn't been approved yet but the chassis is based on Alston front and rear suspensions with modified Alston rails and my cage and body mount ideas.
    To give an idea of scale, the rear tires are 29x18R-15's on 15 x 15 Centerlines.

    I haven't done any crossmember or engine/tranny mount designs because the customer will handle those after he gets the engine where he wants it.

    Thanks for looking.

    whats a render? does that mean its a cad drawing and not the actual bezel? and is that a mini van chassis?

    Correct on both accounts. The bezel pics are renderings done of my 3D CAD model and the chassis is going to have a bit of a "Soccer Mom" theme when it gets skinned over...
