I made the antlers and the base for the beacon. They were made from wood, fiberglass body filler and a lot of shaping.
George.

Since I was not able to find an Ansen T-Handle, I decided to make one from scratch.
I used 1 inch tubing and welded a "T". 
I then added fiberglass body filler and started shaping it. 
After shaping, it got some paint and it was done! |

I made it out of statinless steel. I used green LED lights (for now). They can flash at different speeds and a couple of patterns. George |

It has been a slow go, but it should be worth taking a little extra care to have a better Bat!

Very nice George. If you don't mind me asking, where did you get the front lens?
|
||
|
GeorgeVpr |
Don C. provided the lenses with the Kit. | ||

They are factory 80-86 Nissan pick-up lenses. They are a nice fit for the Bat.
