Re: 1950 Chevy 3100 Ramp Bed 1-ton

I started working on the electrical while waiting on the windows to arrive (they were on back order). I replaced the three cab lights with five LED's. I also replaced both front factory park lights with new chrome LED lights and added LED fender lights. I added LED side marker lights and LED stop/tail lights. I want a big truck look so I installed lighted rocker switches in the dash for the headlights, interior lights and work lights. I used relays for all of the lights. I also replaced the vacuum wiper with a 12 volt electrical wiper motor, new arms and blades. I also ordered and installed Dakota Digital HDX guages with GPS speedometer. This setup has outside temp, compass and is blue tooth to allow setup and customizing from your smart phone. I ordered temp senders for the transmission and rear end which can be displayed on the guage information center but have not installed them yet. I installed new interior lights with LED's as well. I also installed LED work lights on the bed and a brake controller for towing a trailer.
