Henry died in 1947.

"The Deuce" (Henry Ford II) didn't offer any backup lights on trucks, Bronco's and Econolines until 1967.

This wasn't his idea, it was mandated by the NHTSA as part of the new light truck safety standards that went into effect beginning with the 1967 model run.

Also included were a heater/defroster, L/H outside mirror, lap seat belts and a padded dash.

I've seen 1960/63 Falcon (optional) backup lights installed on these 1957/60 Stylesides, prolly done by the dealers. These are from the 2 doors and 4 doors, the wagons are different, as their mounting base is curved.

Backup lights for all Passenger Cars were mandated by the NHTSA beginning 1/1/1966, as were lap seat belts, a left hand outside mirror, heater/defroster and a padded dash.
