I installed the decals and horn last night. I need to get hot on some sort of headlight.
The decal was fiddle. First decal ended in the trash. The backing paper was super thick and I tried early.

Dave it's a 454 Big block Chevy or a 429 Ford or a 440 or 40 HP VW or a.....

I thought I had replied to this one above. Must have clicked the wrong button.

IIRC I said to use a big old steam engine headlight mounted on the radiator, but from what I see that would interfere with the radiator cap. Maybe on a little tower over the radiator cap?

Fabulous work Phillip; it makes one look at the possibilities of building one.  It's very inspiring.  Thanx for the inspiration.

Your welcome Kyle!

Here is the headlight I'm printing today in right front. Son of the one on the left... I'm sure it will require some changes. It is suppose to straddle the radiator cap.
The bottom is flat to fit a flat deck unlike the other lights. They have a radius for round boilers.
