Thanks! I actually used those smooth lights on my '72 Blazer and liked the look of them. The vans are also a good source of the 'deluxe' marker lights. Gonna hit the 'yard in the morn and see what I can find...

Thanks for the compliments I am having serious difficulties in not making this thing perfect, but some 'bumps and bruises' are needed to pull off the look I'm going for. I shoulda just started with your truck I might actually make it shiny someday, but not anytime soon...

Got a bunch done today, but squat for pics- forgot to grab the camera. I did a lot of final assembly type stuff, such as bumpers, inner fenders, weatherstripping, blah, blah, blah... Here's a crappy cell phone pic of 'in progress', just to satiate the pic need:
