        That and one for the head lights would be a big seller.

          Seller or not, that would be a super-cool look.
          It's never been about selling stuff.

            Greg didn't purchase them so much as stroke Alex's ego, Sandy. (And I met him on a TBN excursion once and he and his wife were just the most friendly, welcoming and inclusive people - so there's that...)...
            I really only do this for my own personal satisfaction from enjoying an idea that worked out and enhanced Wyrdbird's ineffability, but I have reluctantly allowed LA Phil* to list some of my creations in his webstore for a price that will ensure that few, if any, people will actually want me to make anything .
            This is because I have an imagination that compels me to improve the design of something that is almost but not quite what I want, into what I would consider to be its purest form ; (hardly any modification to Wyrdbird is installed in its original form and some have continued to evolve), but I'm not an efficient worker ; anything that looks like it might turn into a form of employment feels very uncomfortable and detracts from the pleasure derived.

            TL;DR: talk to LA Phil.

            And thanks for your appreciation, Sandy

              Alex thanks for the kind comments. I still remember our meeting and my immediate attraction to you and your innovative retro thinking. I probably bugged Alex for over a year to make me a set of custom taillight bezels. The set he sent me had a small tbird emblem across the lower bar that I later returned to Alex when I repainted them. I love the new look and again thanks to my friend Alex! Since then I've removed my SS short headlight visors and had them painted black to tie in with the rears. I do know that Alex put a lot of work into making the set that I'm fortunate enough to have. I hope to see you again Alex!

                  Here's another Alex creation that's caught my interest . Maybe without the bar?

                    To be clear; the post I wanted to delete is the one I added the delete request to. I accidentally posted when I was editing and created a duplicate. I realize now I just had to edit it and delete the contents. Silly me.

                      They look great, I still wish there was an available stainless ring for the taillight.

                        Re: Wyrdbird Evolution - Tail Lights

                        And...
                        Two more tail light bezels styles, further variations on the porthole theme.
                        Wyrdbird is now wearing chrome faced portholes, but I may now switch to painted portholes with chrome rings...

                            I prefer the one without the chrome.
