Re: 1930 boat tail speedster from a rough starting point

Check it out... the tail light assemblies are getting closer. The housings have just a little bit more machining to do for the wire passage and the pipe flange to fasten the mounting bracket. The LED lights fit nicely into place. The center two are red and each one has two levels of brightness for the tail light and brake light. The out side lights are amber and white. The housings will be hand finished and chrome plated.
I'm currently working on the bent pipes that are the mounting brackets. The original pipes are 1 1/8" in diameter. Motorcycle handle bars are 1" in diameter, so I thought about that option... but now I'm looking for someone with a pipe bender with 1 1/8" tooling.
