Teddyh53Clip	Headlight Bezel	#1
Not too shy to talk Joined: 2023/9/21 7:32 Last Login : 7/7 7:35 From Indiana Group: Registered Users Posts: 19	I've noticed on my 53 Clipper Deluxe Touring Sedan that my headlight bezels look nothing like all the other pictures I'm seeing. Mine have a raised chrome "fin", if you will. All the other pictures I have seen, they are just round chrome bezels. Attach file:   LFQuarter.jpeg (124.57 KB) Posted on: 2023/10/9 10:29

This was often done to add a bit more distinction to the front ends. Posted on: 2023/10/9 10:42
