Found those things

Check out the new pic in my gallery. Posted a pic some time back of light mounts on the front fenders of a 65. Found a set of nos and got them mounted. Let me know what you think.? Good or bad.

You don't see many custom cab flat beds.

Thing is I hope that you like the lights, the holes are in your fenders.

Frank, I think the fender lights look great on your truck. It does fit the theme of your flatbed. I bought a parts truck that has a pair of those lights but one of the housings is cracked, otherwise I would use them. I thought about repairing the housing and painting them but my ideas and my actions are miles apart. Maybe I'll just put them on evilbay. Steve

The holes didn't bother me. It was the drilling that made me cringe.
Funny thing. I purchased these from a guy down in SoCal.(eBay) He had posted a question wondering if they were an after market or OEM item.
jowilker replied with the answer. BACK IN 2003 !
Thanks for the feedback guys. Now I can give the old lady some crow to eat.

I have to admit, the lights look way coold on your flat bed. Very nice, and a rare option too. I have the lolly pop lights on my truck, but the mounts are a little different.

Sharp very neat addition to any flat bed hauler. I like it... Got my eye out for some in the yards to grab myself. Your truck looks great.......

Rusbukt,
I like the flat paint as well. What did you use to get that finish? - Thanks

A place in San Diego, California sells the paint. It is a three part urethane. You get the color, hardener and reducer all together.
Very nice for a single stage application when you cant afford a $3000 or more 2-3 stage paint job.
You can get on eBay and order it believe it or not. It's called Hot Rod Flatz. They have 30 + colors to choose from.
