'70 Cobra Tail Light

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hello!
I'm looking at a 1970 Torino Cobra that's not far from from where I live.. but the previous owner had replaced the original tail lights with the long strip light from a GT. I'm not super familiar with this year model so I'm not sure what kind of drilling/fabrication/modification was done to do this.. and if it's reversible.

How difficult would this be to return to OEM? 

Thanks!

-Will

	Welcome to the Forum! Feel free to tell us about yourself in the Welcome Mat. You can convert back to Cobra tail lights but you'll likely have to fill a few holes in the panel between the tail lights. I attached a pic showing that the centre section has some extra fasteners between the tail lights. Good luck!
