Rustydodge46 Posted January 16, 2020 Author Report Posted January 16, 2020 (edited) The rear by far is my favourite angle of the coupes ? The rear lights are not period correct for 42 but that's about to change as I found a bunch of 42 parts from a donor including the rear lights. Edited January 16, 2020 by Rustydodge46 addding more info 2 Quote
