AND IT'S EITHER A 210 MODEL OR 150 MODEL THE LEAST EXPENSIVE MODEL. THE 210 HAD CHROME BELOW THE BELT LINE, AND THE 150 HAD NO CHROME. THAT WAS SOME NICE METAL WORK SIR! REAL NICE!

PERSONALLY I think the original tail lights would have looked better if they were frenched in about 4 inches. It would have stayed true to the body.. Round tail lights look out of place on that body. But thats just my opinion. The metal work is good though.

@Theoldironworkshop 8 ай бұрын
Yes, I totally agree. The owner had a vision in his head and didn’t exactly turn out. He’s actually purchased some other tail lights that we’re going to probably change out this winter. Or whole different route I personally would’ve done 54 mercury
