The light pattern is fine. I am debating going back to the OEM round lights.

 

If you want to keep the bozo look, get some actual Cedric headlights and make it right.

It spent some time here in Texas when it left California. Did you by chance buy it from Alfredo in Dallas? 

 

Out of the blue, just remembered that somewhere I have a photo of it in front of my house...   :rofl:

Here are some photos I got of it when it was still owned by Mallen, the builder. These photos are in San Leandro, back in 2013 I believe.

I noticed that the 510 looks like it has hoodpins but then doesn't in the more recent pictures? Regardless a beautiful car imo

Bozo is like hot rodding, there is no "right", individuality and creativity is whats cool

Love watching these videos of 510's driving. Can't wate to get my goon going good again. At least I trust the suspension on it for traveling long distance because it has been all redone. The others still need to be redone. I barly trust them to go very far or fast till I get time to redo them. Love your video,

[KoHeartsGPA]

Thank you, I'll post more when we go out cruising, i need to eliminate the annoying rattling under the dash pad, installing the heater core will fix that since the noises come from the loose heater control pieces ;)

[macgyver]

Just got her back together. Really couldn't be happier. More pics in my build thread.

I agree it doesn't look as unique but is much cleaner look.  I have since put in intake funnels as both yellow light kind of clashed with the paint color and one was cracked.  I will post pics later.

[FrankenDime]

So I threw in two funnels as I didnt care for the amber lights against the yellow paint and one of the lights was cracked anyway. I also installed a BLOX custom weighted shift knob as my greddy one, when tightened, made the "Greddy" and 1-5 gears upside-down.
