I love those oldies! I will post a picture of my two generations too. Soon I hope. Next weekend I will be in Holland again, so I hope to get a chance to make a picture and post it.

So after all those years the massive chrome work evolved in a mere little chrome strip on the hood...

You did a real good job on the audio system! Looks nice and clean!

Got to admit when driving down the street with the '53 you would go unnoticed!

I'd blow it up to a nice size and hang it up in the house or your shop..

I must have sent out close to a half dozen free sets of black vinyl eyelid kits. I put them on the tail lights too. I guess you couldn't call those eyelids. They got some attention at the Ohio Meet earlier this month.

I still have some black vinyl left if your interested and have black CTSs. PM me with a delivery address.

Yeah, I saw that in your Avatar. I was opening up to others with black Caddies. You can get the vinyl in a variety of colors but blue chip would probably not be one of them.

You have problems Newton. I was offering some free kits to members with black CTSs. That's not hi-jacking and is congruent to the thread. I've helped a number of forum members with eye lid material and templates. I was the one who brought the Tim Allen Design to the Forum and one of the first to make them. I don't need to share the spot light with you man. Your Spots are RED anyway.

Fellas lets not argue, we are all here to talk about our cars and learn new things.

Newton has made it a point to attack me when ever the opportunity arises.

:Offtopic: The little colored boxes near the upper right are values for your reputation.
Hoover your curser over it and it will show a ranking for every member. See the blue band near the top that has a legal scale in it? Click on that and you can approve or disapprove that post. There is a space for a short comment and even your signature. Go to the User CP at the top and you can see the rep posts and any comments. I'll give you some luv pts so you can check it out.

Let's turn it back to my pal Newton.

hm. first things first..

BOB- i do not care about your eyelids, its fcking vinyl for christ sakes. i dont care about the "spotlight" and i NEVER tried to make it appear that way. you think because you posted a picture that you BROUGHT the TAD design to us? I thank tim allen not BOB the disgruntled old man. SECOND i do NOT attack you every point that arises. I HAVE NEVER GIVEN YOU OR ANYONE ELSE BAD FEEDBACK OR RATINGS. nor do i give a shit about the "red dots". you really find a way to exploit every situation and i think its just because of who you are, so i cant get mad that that. what bothered me is when someone even mentions the lids you bust in having to prove to WHOEVER that you made them too. congradulations... old man you need to get a new hobby instead of polluting these forums all day.

Spelling would help you. You said you are not mad but why do you appear to be? Couldn't you have grinned and moved on?
