Abstract Art


Obviously, form follows function, although today it seems as if we're all function without the form. That's not what 168 is about. Yesterday it was cool K-Mart (yes, K-Mart!) fog lights, today it's the abstract art shown here.

Rick Fichter: Like something out of Orwell's 1984, this "taillight" is the coolest find in ages. After a week of wracking my brain, I stumbled upon this beauty. Pictured is a vintage microphone that I will convert into a taillight similar to a lot of cool builds coming out of California, and a throwback to Cali custom shops in the 60s. The next step is to, using technology that will meet today's impossible requirements, mount the stoplight on the fender. Trying to think out of the box here, or maybe to throw away the box completely.
