looking for photos during the 80's

I pick up this truck a while ago.
https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...ee-trucks.html
it going to be my work truck but for some reason I want to do a 1970's to 80’s theme to it. back in high school, doing the late 70's & early 80’s. we had these 70's trucks. we would put a roll bar in the f150 and headack(ladder) rack for the f250. then there was the gun rack for the rear window. we would put a grill guard on the front bumper for light’s and to push things with. I already have the headack rack and gun rack but still need the front bumper push bar.

well for life of me, I cant remember what they looked like back then. do any of you have photos of our trucks doing the 70’s/80’s?
how about any Advertisement for the 1970's Ford F-Series trucks with these on them?

kinda like this photo


but the push bar didn't have any thing to protect the head lights.

yes i have tried the search buttons and nothing coming up.I spent more hours looking for photo on the internet and still not finding it.
so i ask for your help.

Here's my swap meet $20 push bar. It's easy enough to fabricate out of 3/16th-inch plate and some .095 or .120 wall tubing.
