For lights you can go LED, and use USB power cord (like on a phone, etc). That way you would have low voltage going though it.

 

Yes, I'm still in negotiation. I'm hoping we have come to an agreement, and the truck will stay.

 

In this world of absent Dad's and folks that would rather stare at a cell phone than talk to there family, you sir, and your family, are a breath of fresh air. This thread really warms my heart, Im sure you already know how blessed you are, so Ill just say "Rite On" my friend, "Rite On", You are a great father.

 

Thanks man. Like I said..he is my entire World. When I bought my 67' F100 he had just turned 2 years old. Most kids, when they first learn to talk.....Mom or Dad, Dog...is their first words. My sons first word was Truck. As I was rebuilding that truck, he would come wake me up every morning, at like 6 AM..."Daddy..lets work on truck." He's a true car guy through and through.


Been wrenching/working on cars since day 1!

 

Great Father/son project!

I just had an idea for you, thanks to the thread by Mid-Fifty. Take the grille of the truck and wire it for 110 and mount it on the wall for lighting. Also, Put those window candles light fixtures in the parking light housings so they could be used as a night light. I did that to my original 54 grille hanging in my garage.... not for a night light though, ha-ha. It is pretty easy to do.

 

Here is my original 54 grille that I put candle light fixtures in the parking light lens, to give you an idea what I mean:

 

Sweet dreams!
