1937 Packard Custom Headlights Part 2

Fun stuff. That shop and tools are a lifetime of investment. Same with his skills. Just a personal aside, I'd have made the lower "eye bags" concave so they'd compliment that gorgeous headlamp but not take anything from it. Your focus tends to drift down while looking at the primary target.
 
I'd have done it the same way he did simply because of the soul patch trim. It doesn't detract from the headlight, it compliments it. The focus remains on the headlamp. It's a work of art and labor of love.
 
I love Packards! Those were really well built cars in automotive history and nothing looked like a Packard!
