    Welcome to the Forum Aero. Sounds to me like you are having a ton of fun with the cars. As for Silver Streaks I sold my '58 Chico model to my neighbor who restored it, while I did my '51 Airstream. I tow mine with my wagon, he's still sorting out what he's going to do for a vintage tow vehicle. It is so sick to see that wonderful trailer going down the road behind a 15 year old (heck, a new truck) Ford F150. :evilsmile:

    As for the lights the last time I saw a set of those they were under the dash of my brothers '57 Mercury convertible. They looked pretty cool. Somehow his girlfriend kicked one of them off - I can't imagine how :49:.

    Looking forward to seeing pictures of your toys.
