I do have to say they are nice looking signals heads.

Since 90% of the stuff was Marbelite where I grew up. Hands down, they are my favorite!!! :good: :thumbsup:
Well what do you know. If I put my name here, I do not have to sign it everytime.

95 % FINISHED:

Still waiting on some gaskets and have to attach the safety chain and get a green lens out of another one of my parts signals. But for the most part, she is finished and Photobucket is finally working again. Videos to follow soon.
