        With everything getting darker, those corner lights stick out like sore thumbs now. Looks good though.

                I did the front lights up like that because I like the 'corners only' look, so that is pratically all you see when the markers come on.

                Chitownvic, yes that is a 65 Caddy; I really need to put more hours into that one!

                  You need to get the spot light bracket for the 79-91 LTD. It will fit your Merc and with out it you risk bending the shaft which will cause the light to size in place. The bracket can be bought new from unity and with a little prep can be painted to match the car.

                      I actually had the brackets mounted on the inside, since everything was off a whale body interceptor. I didn't read the year specific part until I was already elbow deep into it. It turned out to work for me, but I'd definately not recommend it

                        Well, if you are serious I'm the person to talk to about finding older coaches and ambulances, and the killer deals I can get (pun intended) you really have to be into the car to own it however. a lot of people want one, buy it, and realize they cannot afford to keep the car in shape. Cadillacs, in particular will suck you dry of whatever money you have. They just know when you have it. However, once in a great while you'll find a decent one.

                        I've never watched that movie, but I'm a big fan of Mother, Jugs & Speed haha

                            Those clips make me miss the old caddy ambulances... Thanks to the company that made the star of life logo they are no longer using coach based ambulances for service. Eh well, all good things come to an end I digress.

                            Sounds like you know your cadillacs! I see you are in Chicago, have you heard of the CHA? (Chicago Hearse Association)

                                One of the hearse drivers down here shoved a Q2B firetruck siren in his, and has a tendency to try to compete with passing firetrucks haha

                                I don't have a link to them offhand but I'll find their site for ya
