Thanks tj, I look forward to an update on ol' two-tone.


Here's is the plane now in primer. I still need a few more coats with light sanding in between but it looks pretty good.

Well Nik,

I never even saw those before.

I like them a whole load. Would love to know what they were from, and also to see how they were fitted in a previous life.

Personally, the whole straw thing does it for me, which is why I always enjoy Marks thread on his truck, which constantly evolves.

May have to look out for some of them.

I have a pair of Blue Dots for my new tail light lenses that still need fitting when I get to that on my truck.

Thanks guys, the lights were installed by the original owner of my dads car back in the late 70's. They were mounted under the dash so when they turn on in the night the hole floor had a purple glow, ( oohh fancy!). And rian I also really admire the work that mark has done to his interior, oh and I also plan on using blue dots in my taillights as well
