A friend gave me a left side of the engine case. I'm thinking about making a wall lamp out of it.
What year is it? 6T66549
Also what is the web page for this info? I found it once,now I'm lost.

Yes indeed, you have a 6T Thunderbird from April 1955.

NICE DECORATION!

Is it blown or useable?

Grand Paulz I
suppose it is usable if the right half could be located
I have no idea where that piece is.
Couldnt hurt to make a lamp, no drilling required for mounting to wall, the lamp assembly can rest on the studs
