So I was looking at rustys taillight boxes and remembered the sheet of steel I have in the shop so I decided to try and make my own. They arent finished yet but heres a pic of them in progress.

 

good work so far. there is nothing better then building your own parts. soon you will make so much stuff you wont even tell people about it. Like I made 2 or 3 small fabs today alone.

Back up light brackets / Switch pad for toggles / light up toggles switches / Wiring tunnel

but keep it up!!! what kind of lights are you running in them

 

I found 4" round clear led lights that light up red, not sure on reverse lights yet probably a universal fog light.

 

Those look really nice!

I have them on my jeep. there nice back up lights for the money

 

nice work. i love building anything if i can makes it all worth it

 

Verry nice.

Looking forward to the finnished pictures.

 

You're an insperation... Would you mind posting some pics of what you are using to do your bending? I have a bunch of fab stuff I'd like to do for my 1950's project and can't get my mind around how to bend like that with what I have available at home...

 

clamp the sheet between the table top and a piece of angle iron or it really looks like he rolled his around a piece of pipe

 

I can't wait to see them on the Jeep. Looks good so far.

 

I used a pair of vise clamps, a 4x4 and the encouragement of a rubber mallet

 

i built my taillight boxes using a 6x6 block and a 10lb sledge hammer lol, look great from 5 ft away

 

very nice work cant wait to see them finished

 

Very nice!! Keep going!

 

Its making something out of nothing...
Great job on that taillight boxes... Hope to see pics when its already finished...
