Alright the reason i got into my econoline addiction was this album cover by a so.cal band named fu manchu. Can anyone tell me if they have ever seen or no where i might be able to find these particulat fog lights?

thanks

 

those look like the elcheapos from walmart or k mart. `should be real easy to find. do a web search for fog/driving lights and see what you come up with.

I dont know Jim. I have looked everywhere and havent found them or similar ones. They seem to be mounted by a single chrome post to the bumper. I thought they looked "vintage".

 

could be older style. wouldnt be hard to convert the brackets to post mount, just remove the bracket and drill a new hole. i would use a couple of stainless washers for backing, and mabey a peice of stainless tube for the stand.

mine has the narrow blue light style behind the grill, took a few tries before i found some the right size for the grill slots.

do you have a picture of yours that you could send me jim?

 

I use to see them all the time during the van craze of the late 70's. My borther's old Econoline had a nice amber set that looked very similar to the cover.

The only think I found that was close is this:

It just doesn't have the chrome post base.

Thanks matt those are the ones i keep finding. Thanks jim. Did any econoline ever come with fog lights like those? I know that there are two holes in my bumper that would pretty much line up with those fog light holes. But I am sure it could be something else.
