What a beauty! (The car, and the shot!) Looks great in black and white, too!
There's a glassblower who creates replacement "bullet lenses" for those 2 pointy tail lights, using Venetian-style glass techniques (think marble-like swirls, gold flecks, etc.) #1436214

Thanks Christopher, I would like to see the glassblowers creations. Do you have a website for him? Have a great New Year. #9918000

I am having trouble finding their website now (perhaps gone?) but it was dichrome.com. If you google for that and tail lights, you may get a result from theflowmagazine.com website, a PDF of an article from a few years back, showing the tail lights. If not, I can send you that PDF. #9925532
