Thanks for all the compliments!

Yea I am definitely going to use a relay or 2 for all the extra headlights and I’ll have to put them on a separate switch because you are only allowed to have 4 headlights on at a time in Illinois. I will only be using the extra headlights for cruise nights and car shows. And while I’m at it, I am going to do the alternator upgrade as well.

Did you use a template or mold to form the front fascia? Have you or are you planning on making the interior tweed fabric? Great looking car.

Not sure if I would want to drive around with a racial slur on the car though.

It's a slur towards white people, meaning no one is going to be offended lol.

Wow, I suck at updating this. I ended up getting all the headlights wired and working. I used 3 relays total. I used 1 for the parking lights and split the extra headlights up on the other 2. I'm glad that I put the extra lights on a separate switch because it is WAY too bright to drive with all 8 on at once. I just turn them all on when pulling in and out of car shows and cruise nights. Ill try and find a few pictures of it with all the lights on at once. It is now in storage for the winter.

No that's not mine. The guy that started to built this one actually lived about an hour away from me. He ended up selling it to a friend when it was about half done. I guess he lost interest in it. The friend completed it and then later sold it to that company.


Masaes727-
I built the front header panel from scratch. I made a plywood form to get the desired shape and then used fiberglass on the form. I ended up cutting the front end apart twice to get it just right. Also, I am going to recover the seats in the tweed material over the winter. I was so anxious to start driving it that I didn't want to have to take all the seats out and wait for them to get recovered when I could have been driving it.

lol. I thought about making a piece of magnetic woodgrain for the rear quarter panel that had honky lips spray painted on it. That way it wouldn't be permanently attached to the car. But then to be movie correct I would have to take all the hubcaps off.
