Slowly but surely cleaning up 2 Weeks, 1 Day ago  
The rear fender that is, working on a very tight budget so doing things little by little, and to be honest kinda stole the basis of THIS idea from Fireman (Thanks for the info by the way Fireman). My initial thought was to get the integrated tail-light turn signal, but to be honest the more I look at this I kinda like the lolli-pops close in like this, now just gotta figure a way to get some light on the plate so don't have any night time run ins with johnny law. Anyway couple a pics.......at least gonna try a couple pics.

I had the tag light problem with a custom one time and I found some really cool tag bolts that lit up. It worked great and I had no problems with the boys in blue.

Looks good CPO! I was going to tell you about the light bolts, but Shamrock beat me too it.

I just take my chances with an unlit plate. Haven't gotten hassled yet.

Yeah those are the ones. There are actually a few different brands, but those will work. I put mine on the bottom holes facing up to hide the wires better. Glad to hear you tore into that carb! Send us pics when you get them installed.

Re:Slowly but surely cleaning up 2 Weeks ago  
Still cleaning up the back end and pulled the sissy bar off and wanted to cover up the holes in the brackets and had a couple old coins layin around one of the constitution and the other of the liberty bell, so made a couple small brackets and put the coins on them with a little J B Weld and dropped them on to cover the top, not the best but it something for now till I can find something I like better.



Can someone please explain to me how to post multiple picture in one post this is killing me
