    This is what I was talking about with the 51 ply. I would think a set of 39 ford lights would look good.

    My opinion would be to stay away from the 39 tear drops. My experience with them in a Mullins trailer and on a 39 Ford, is that they have to be mounted perpendicular to the road other wise they will be hard to see from behind. (and really so if you use blue dots). The new LED ones are much brighter but again they shouldn't be mounted on an angle (LED's are directional lights). 39 teardrops are really cool, but I prefer being seen from behind and at a distance of more than 20 feet.

    The tail lights of a 55 should be work really well for you. They have LED's for them as well.

    Richard, really glad to hear that she is out and that they think that may have been the problem. Food poisoning isn't pleasant, but sure better than lots of other stuff.

    Yep, your visitor looks like it has taken over the house for sure. I know the feeling..........I wanted to take a nap on the couch this afternoon but Lucky and Chewy were all sprawled out and I didn't have the heart to disturb them.
