Re: '67 stepside project

My paint guy is ready....the cab isn't ready yet so the bed is going first....A few finishing touches fitting the custom tail lights last night and I'll be taking it tomorrow...

I couldn't find a tail light idea that I really liked so I made my own design... machined some housings from aluminum....

LED lights from Amazon (China) a stop, turn, and back up LED all in one...

I wanted to hide the wires down thru the stake side....

they will get painted the body color with the bowtie polished...it also serves as a boss to tighten down in the housing....

I also put an o-ring in the front to seal out any moisture...
