Could be worth some money them if they are saveable? plenty of nice 1920s posters are now worth over 10K some value in nice ww2 ones also.

The other thing you could do is clean that bit up and hire it out for Photo shoots.

Looks a bit creepy to me in there :shock: :flush:

The only things that were missing from the rocket were two of the tail-fin lights and the one that was there wasn't that clever anyway.

'59 Caddy rear lights seemed the obvious choice.

I want the seat to look as 'Dan Dare' as possible and also have the right amount of patina.

I scored an old car seat that's perfect and I'll use the leather to get it reupholstered. Now I thought I knew my car makers but I'm stumped on the logo that's embossed into the headrest. Can anyone put a name to it?

The light on the front of the rocket looks a bit rubbish (Morris Minor I've been told).

I think this '63 Galaxie tail-light that arrived this morning will look a million times better!

Jem, that logo looks like it could be Bertone.
