image.jpgHi all, it's been a while since I posted anything. But, I have been lurking in the background at tips and pointers to get this project completed. (Or soon to be completed) After a job transfer that was a dead end I decided to go all in and focus on my 59 Bugeye. I finally drove it for the first time yesterday and it was such feeling of accomplishment. Here's a couple pics...I can't wait to show it off to my visiting family tomorrow.

Looks fabulous. LED Taillights courtesy of?
 
welcome back - and that is truly stunning!
 
And the lump that was in there wasn't an A Series was it?
 
Looks good. Bugsy IV coming along nicely. Just got a headlamp issue resolved, and an issue with a Tenex Fastener added to the mirror so tonneau cover has a place to attach to when driving 1/2 zipped. Some cogitating on Turnsignal of RH Side being non functional. Turn signal works on LH F&R, Rear only flashes quickly meaning bulb is not getting current. More Cogitating tomorrow to resolve.
 
Looking Sharp, Sharp, Sharp. It will be a while before I get there. Tonneau Cover Fitting in progress however today.
 
I bet it looks better in the Sun! How do you attach them?
I think I would like to have them on my BE. I bet the neighbors are impressed.

Moss carries two types of mounting options.
