An easy "customization" was to put tail light lenses on the backup light and jumper the wires together to give a 3x3 bank - same on a '60 Chevy, and mine was already done when I got it used & abused.

For those who might wonder what we are talking about, the Corvettes from '61 to '67 had 4 lights total. A common customizing trick was to cut two more holes inboard of the original four, and add two more lamps. Converting the middle ones, which would have had white lenses, gives this look:

Hence ".....all that Jag could see was my six tailights."

These are a little tougher than some of the others
#1 is two piece windshield
#4 is 6 like has been discussed.
#5 is nickel plating I think.
