Re: my ol '66
Hey Farhaad - I got distracted the last little while and never saw your pics while they were still there... from what I can see, it looks pretty awesome.
Please man, stick some pics back up... (or all of them, that would be ok too...
)
Cheers
Dave

1) got two reflectors from chris
2) used a blow torch to burn out old refector from cassing
3) grinded chris's reflector down to size, while centrering the SABS "chuppie"
4) using white sillicon to fix reflector to cassing so that it looks og. (clear sillicon looks grey)
5) using a drill and polish buff, buff the shine back
and vwollah
