What tail lights are you using?

C20-67_N_MO · 07-07-2011, 03:42 PM

Very cool.

That big block should be able to roast those rear tires!!

Very nice looking truck.

Congrats!

Are those vette taillamps? That looks cool! Wonder what that set him back? Roll pan custom?

fair1138 · 07-07-2011, 08:25 PM

Those are vet lights, came with the truck when I picked it up in VA. Ive done alot of work on the engine, Ill try to get a vid of a burnout one of these days. The 4 buttons on the panel are lights. They show when I have a turn signal on. i wanna redo the panel and move them.

I went with a 4/2 drop for a baseline. I think next Ill save up for drop spindles. I also have some wheelie bars (for looks) I want to put on. The front wheels are 15x8 with 4.5"bs and the rears are 15x12 with 7"bs. The rear tires are 29x15.50 MT sportsman pro.

OK-Been looking at vette tail lights, I am now skeptical these are Vette tail lights. All the vette lights I have seen are oval, not rectangle like these. If they are vette lights, what year?

givengold · 09-08-2011, 01:29 AM

Looks like a ZR-1 style roll pan. They are fiberglass, popular late 90's. Haven't seen them advertized lately.

sweet truck

**special-K** · 09-08-2011, 09:44 AM

That's a really nice choice of wheels in the right diameter with a great stance!

1990 zr1s got square tail lights, 1991+ all other c4s got rectangle lights. Before 1990 all corvettes had round taillights. C5 and c6 have the oval tail lights your talking about.
