That's the plan Dale! I'm not a Chevy guy, but this is one of my favorite cars from the '50s lol. I need to figure out a custom taillight treatment though, anyone have any ideas?

Just looked at my 58' , i like the tail lights, maybe bigger lenses, like 59 Caddy ones?? but other than that, not sure what will improve the look.

What about a set of Edsel station wagon (the boomerang shaped ones) lights with one side lined up on the fins and the other framing the number plate. Looks like a nice kit

Very sweet Jesse! I have a friend who's father-in-law has a '58 kustom. Red, wire wheels, stainless and chromed out tuneport Chevy and engine bay, lake pipes. Can't wait to see what you do with this.

Jesse, Fill 'em in, "blank 'em out" and put the tail lights "Frenched" into the bumper? Make the bumper like "Ground Effects" as well?
