I previously asked about period-correct fog lights for my 1965 Ford F100. I asked if they where a Ford Factory option and if not, what was the aftermarket manufacturer in 1965 that would have offered fog lights for a 1965 Ford truck.

Thanks for all the feedback. It seems everyone is pushing me to the unity website, saying they were the only ones that did fog lights AND that they still make the very same fog light. I looked on the unity website and saw the fog lights that pop up in a search for 1965 F100 fog lights, however, they have a part number of 520AP-F 5" Round 12 Volt Amber Foglight with Ford Ornament (Pair).

I had read in a different thread that the factory fog lights were part number (C5RZ15200A) and driving lights with part number (C5RZ15200B) available. This came from NummersDummy (I think that was his name).

Help!!!!!!!!!

Here's the link to pictures of my restoration to date: www.photobucket.com/HolmesFordF100


Thanks for all the help.

 

Do you want fog lights because you need brighter lights or do you just like the look of them? If you just need brighter lights, I would consider upgrading your headlight harness and headlights.

 

Good question. I want the fog lights because I like the way they look on older trucks. Thanks

 

Are you looking for ones like mine?

 

Are those cab lights factory (or dealer)?

 

Marky, that truck is a 67, correct?

It's possible that the same light was sold by Ford or sold by an aftermarket company in 1965 and 1967.

Are those Factory Ford fog lights?

What's the history on them, if you know.

Thanks.

 

the tuck looks like a 65 4x4 custom cab

 

1965/66 F100/1100:

C5TZ-15312-A Right & C5TZ-15313-A Left .. Spotlamp Kits were made by Unity for FoMoCo and are still available from Unity.

AFAIK, there was no 'genuine' Ford Unity fog or road lamp offered for these trucks. Unity lamps were sold back then at all autoparts stores, but...

I'm unaware of who supplied the following to FoMoCo.

1965/66 Passenger Cars - Trucks - Econolines & 1966 Bronco's:

C5RZ-15200-A .. Road Lamp-Chrome w/Clear Bulb / The removable bezel has serrations on it.

C5RZ-15200-B .. Fog Lamp-Chrome w/Amber Bulb / Same description.

These were universal 'fitz-alls' and came with mounting brackets that clamped to the front bumpers.

These lamps do not look at all like the lamps pictured in post 4. For one thing, the bulbs are "frenched" into the bezel.

No Ford Dealer or obsolete parts vendor has any, and neither has been available for a long time. I installed a pair of C5RZ-15200-A's on my '65 F100 just after I bought it new.

Circa 1985, a old myopic battleaxe driving a 1978 Lincoln, backed up in a line of traffic that was waiting for the light to change. Hit my trucks front bumper...bent the he!! oughtta the lamps.

No one had the lamps then, no one has them now.

 

I have a set of the C5RZ-15200-A with brackets and wiring I took off my 65'. Problem is after moving 3 times in a 6 month period I have no clue which box they are in. Excellent shape and still worked had been on truck shortly after truck purchase. Will try to find pics.

 

Boy Boss9, a few pics would sure be great. Would help me know what I was looking for if I ran across them out there.
