Here ya go Ron, this will make it look more like yours than tail lights;

I think you could whittle some tail lights out of metal,alum or something else & paint them.

With a small piece of red plastic I could make a couple and paint them to look right.

That's the ranchero model I have which has the round falcon tailights. I need the 65 comet wagon tailights to match what I have on Comechero. Even 64 might work as they are the same shape just a little different arrangement. But when they are that small may be ok. Might be able to paint them out to look close. I have found a 64 but at $45 not sure it's worth it.
What the 65 wagon tailights look like, 64 same shape different lens:

Save those Torque thrush mags from the falcon! You might sell them to me or Joe. Save that tear drop scooped hood too! if they ever come out with a 64 Pop might want that hood!!!

Geez, are we selling and trading parts for plastic models now? Now I know I what old guys do that can't crawl under cars anymore.

Too cold out in the garage Albert!

Maybe Pops might be interested in this one. It's a resin model if it is actually available.

Just heard that there will be a 65 AFX Cyclone available soon as well. It's going to have a 427 cammer!
It's made by Moebius too.

Was playing on the net and found this about the afx version, has a couple pictures of a afx version Moebius used for a test shot. Plus some discussion about it, no release date, etc.

Not yet! I opened mine but I'm too busy working on a rusty real one!

[Comechero65]

Haven't started on mine yet either. Too cold in garage and nowhere to work till some stuff gets put away. Still looking for for a model wagon with the right taillights.
