Re: 1954 Chevy / S10
Shannon, very clever set up on the headlights, simple and effective, way to go. Can't wait to see the front end in primer, should look real clean.....Jim

Re: 1954 Chevy / S10
oldman3, Thank you. I really did work out well.
It was a good day I also finished making the front fender braces. I have a plate that bolts to fender at the factory holes and I drilled and tapped a plate to weld to the radiator support. It uses 2) 3/8 bolts to hold it on. It seemed to stiffen up the front fenders. The round piece with the bolts is the back of the headlight bucket. I have just 2 sheet metal screws in it now but when I take the fenders off to prime I will drill for 4) 1/4 bolts. Shannon |

Re: 1954 Chevy / S10
I have not got too much done lately. I have been working on my house due maybe buying another one. This one has a single car under the house and a 3 car detached ( I will be in heaven). So everyone keep there figures crossed. I should be back in the garage next week after the long weekend of work detail.

Re: 1954 Chevy / S10
man I can't imagine what you could do with that garage space. I hope it all pans out for you.

Re: 1954 Chevy / S10
Intimidator, you would not have to flange it. You could just put some tabs on instead. I just did it that way because I have the tools to do it. I have the back come off so you can center it in the hole and if you have to change the bulbs.
99 to Life, I am crossing my fingers. The added space will be great. Shannon |

Re: 1954 Chevy / S10
Gday Shannon,
Just chipping in as well on the new house venture and want to wish you the best of luck as well. Unfortunately though as we all know, those walls on the 3 bay shed will rapidly creep in and you'll wonder where all the room has gone! They can never be big enough!!! (I know thats a little bit tounge in cheek of me as I know that you know how much room I've got to play in.) Great work on the headlights too man. They look sweet! Trently.

Re: 1954 Chevy / S10
Trently, I know you can never have enough space . I can feel the walls creeping in already. There is at least space that I could add on or put a pole building up at a later time. I would get lost in that building your working in. Have a good one.
