Ok little update guys and gals..


First off I wanted to change the layout of the cab lights so I sanded it down with 60 with my DA and added a piece of .040 plastic to the top glued solid then body work and lay out the pattern..

Before


After


Pattern


Then I made these up last March as a few of you guys know I did them out of 3/4 copper and then soldered them together but the big ? has been with me and Jon is if the soldered with hold up to the polishing heat after the chrome well the answer is NOPE... I went to my buddys shop and used his polishing wheels and buffed the copper to a crazy shine and they got to hot for the solder so I Brazed this set up and made 2 more sets so ill have them chromed soon but here is the blacks ones I am planing on using on this truck.






Whatcha think?? waiting on a bunch of parts but I will have the cab in black tomorrow..
