Don't know if you plan on going to the drive-in but that'll grab everyone's attention!

Hehe, with all those other lights on your car the PONTIAC at the back looks seriously underlit!  Sweet car, can't wait to see it in person at the 20th. Brad

Yes it does. You should throw in a red Neon to light up the PONTIAC in the rear...

Well, it can't be appreciated with still photography but there are four strobes in the PONTIAC lights that are ramdomly going off. So they are a real attention getter at cruise-ins.

Are the strobes independent of the bulbs that light up "PONTIAC"? in other words can you still light up your "PONTIAC" the normal way?

Yes the factory PONTIAC light still light up as normal but with brighter than nomal bulbs. The bulbs make the PONTIAC visible in daylight. The circuit is also wired to the cold cathodes in the headlight covers so the PONTIAC lights and the headlight covers come on automatically when the car is started. The four strobe bulbs are controlled with 2 seperate controllers that allow changing the strobes speeds. The strobes have a seperate switch in the drivers ash tray and of course are not used while driving.

I became a member not long ago and just read the whole 8 page thread. Absolutely exquisite design and craftsmanship. Many could have spent twice what you have and not come up with an end product anywhere near to the standards and perfection yours embody. Many thanks for sharing so much of your work with us. Maybe I missed it somewhere but did you finish making the vents in the fenders functional? If so, maybe you could share a little on it.
