Thanks Scott! Now there is also a second aluminum piece that fits from behind to hold the lense. There will also be 3-4 different lense designs; wide open for the RS plus some that split the lense, narrow/shorten the size. etc. for those that would like a bit smaller lense, more along the lines of the 69's.
No pricing yet, but at least wanted people to know that we are making progress. Jody |
About time! :thumbsup: How much smaller in profile are these than the original? They looked complicated to layout.
Mike |
Did you put those on the hood of the MULE!!! You could have scratched the paint! ;)

Cool. How about a pic next to the original for comparison? Since they are more complicated to machine, I won't ask on price since I will guess more than the '69's.
Mike |
Are mine on the way yet?? I need them for a photo shoot.. yea.. that's it.. a photo shoot with cameras.. yea cameras...
:unibrow: |
OH MY GOD!!!!!! Those are incredible, Now I really can't wait to get my hands on a pair of those. :unibrow: Jody, please keep us posted.

Wow, Those are awesome!...I can assure anyone on the fence of the high quality and craftsmanship of these parts, I LOVE my 69 lights, and apparently so does everyone who sees the car, lots of great compliments on the RS tails....Good Work.
|
That .... Is .... Awesome

You will have a buyer here when they're available... hopefully I will need them in the next month... :_paranoid

Thanks for your response :-) Mike |
Ok, just got off the phone with them and I'm going to try and have them design a set for my 67 with the modern look like the 69 they made for the blue camaro on their contact page. They said it's about a month out, so I think I can wait but my car goes in for major body work in 2 to 3 weeks. By then I may go down there and see if they can cut me out a custom set if possible. Very nice people over the phone by the way.
Mike |
Thanks Mike, you probably spoke with Pascuals brother. We have 4 designs for changing the trim on the lense, and there may be a similar one to the modern 69 already drawn up. I'll talk to Pascual Friday when he gets back in town and let you know.Jody

Thanks again Mike |
Jody, did you mention an even smaller profile one awhile back? I like these and would settle for these if there won't be any real design changes, but would like something still less bulky.
Mike edit: nevermind, I did not pay attn the posts above. I think I am losing it. |
Any updates on availability? :D
Maybe I missed it, but will these bezels work with the stock lenses/lights/etc? I'm actually not running the stock ones - got the LED setup from Technostalgia, so I'm hoping that will fit. |

........Available with the single, one color lens (with LEDS)....... like on the 67 RS ??
And not to be too intrusive, will the lens (with LEDS) be available by themselves to fit the factory bezels ?? Put me on the list for either........ :D |
67-68 Taillight
The 67-68 taillight is going to offered in a few trim options. We currently have three designs of the filler trim that we will be offering to fit in the inside perimeter of the billet housing. 1. Small trim around the outer perimiter of the red lens to make the lens about 1/4 inch smaller, 2. A trim that will split the lens in half, similar to the 68 design and, 3. One that has a small back up light in the center of the lens. We will post pictures of the lights with all three options when we have them done.
I would have made more agressive changes to the light housing itself, but we had some design limitations that we needed to work around. In additon we will be offering a matching billet gas cap, and a set of rally sport back-up lights with the taillights. I believe our light improved the rear look of 67-68 Camaros. However, the lights can appear stock if one was willing to have them plated in chrome and paint the center of the billet black. We still need to have new gaskets made and have the billet trim inserts laser cut before we release them to the public, but a certain few will be getting the first few for feedback. The light fits very nice and it will accept the factory stamped sheet metal light housing. We will try very hard to release them to the Market before SEMA. We are in the process of developing a new look with LED's. It is very unique from what is currently available on the market. We have many ideas for 67-68 Camaros and will pursue them all in time. pascual marquez design |
Thanks or the update, remember I have a stock tail panel if you are looking for feedback!?! ;)
|
I would be very interested in these as well. IF available I will purchase.

Hi Pascual I spoke to you a few weeks ago about trying, well hoping to get a set of these soon. My car goes to body work and paint in 2 weeks and would hope to have this set by then if possible. If I can pre pay for it please let me know. Thanks and sorry for putting you on the spot.
Mike |
I was curious if there was anything new on when we can get a set? :P
|
Any new news on when these will be available?

Close is good... I even shopped the website and found that, as long as the $$$ is in line with the 69 tail lights, I could do it!!
You mentioned before that a triplle light, with a small backup light lens between 2 larger red lens is on the list. Just what I need for my 68 non rs currently sporting 67 RS tailights and zero backup lights. I also read that your billet bezels can use the stock lampholders... which only have 2 sockets... how's this gonna work? |

All our lenses use the stock lampholders. The triple light is a possible option for the 69's which have three sockets. Jody |
