The owner's name is Rodney Walker.  Nice guy.

I'll see him again, but it'll probably be a couple of months.  When we
finally hook up again, I'll get pics, vin, vehicle info.

And if anyone can determine the VIN....This might be added to the
Registry...

Thanks google.

You can't tell that much from the pics.  The car retains the Pantera look.
The headlights look a lot like signal lights.

The next time I see the car, I'll take several photos.  I'm with you,
though.  The first time I heard the car described, it sounded pretty ugly.
I was surprised how nice it looked in person, though.

Still, it's not for me.  I don't even want the modified pop-up halogen
headlights.  I like the frog-eyes.

I need to change the bulbs, though.  I have the Space City LED kit, and
while it doesn't include headlights, I'm going to change all the lights at
one time.  And yes, I'm going to do your Cibie headlights.  You've convinced
me.

Will.

I would need to see several photos to be convinced.   Your description has
me 
reaching for a bucket!

Frankly, I rather enjoy the view from behind the wheel at night with the 
headlights up.   They serve as navigational aids when positioning the car
for a 
corner.   On the way to Las Vegas this year, I had to drive on an extremely 
tight, twisty mountain road with no lights in any direction for miles, and
relied 
on my Cibie Z-beam halogen lights (stock size), which performed admirably.
