Joseph is working on his high school senior project this summer.  He is planning to build a CNC Mill machine that will mill wood, plastic, and aluminum.  He just launched a Kickstarter Campaign to sell his Willys Station Wagon LED tail lights as a kit, to fund the purchase of the CNC parts.

Once he has the CNC machine together, he will use it to produce the circuit boards for the LED tail lights, and other small parts that he can sell to help fund his ’51 Willys Wagon build.

He is hoping to sell 25-30 sets of the lights to fund the CNC project.  It is an ambitious senior project for a 16 year old kid, but he has already raised 2/3 of the 30 day campaign goal in the first 10 days…  There has been lots of interest in these lights on www.oldwillysforum.com and hopefully from others who might not visit the forum to find the info on them.

Even folks don’t need a set of the lights, they can support Joseph’s Kickstarter campaign by pledging $25 or more and get a cool shirt he designed for the project.  If they are feeling philanthropic, they can donate any amout to the campaign… 

Here is what comes in the “kit”, for each tail light, which bolts in to the stock Willys tail light bezel.
