      A new LED retro-fit for 1967-1969 Ford Mustangs has just been introduced by Technostalgia. The new kit converts the aft lighting on classic Mustangs to super-bright LED, as well as adds sequential turn signals and RapidFire brake lights, said the company. The sequential turn signals light each of the three light segments in sequence to indicate the turn direction.

      The RapidFire brake lights flash the lights three times followed by a bright, constant light. They will repeat any time the brake pedal is pressed. The new kit includes LED arrays, LED driving electronics, necessary wiring, stainless steel brackets and an LED turn signal flasher.
      Both the turn signals and the RapidFire brake lights can be turned off individually by the end-user. According to the company, installation of the kit takes less than 30 minutes.

      Hobby Auto Restoration: Primer and Sanding
      A few years ago, my family and I restored a 1976 Camaro. We started with a rusty, dented 76 body, bought out of a junkyard with a running motor for two hundred dollars. From there, we replaced the original front clip with a 1970 1/2 Rally Sport front and also welded on a 1973 tail end. If you are unfamiliar with this ear of Camaro, 1970 1/2 through 1973 are almost identical. Other than the front and rear, the rest of the body did not change much from those three years to the 1976 either.
