    Need some Denny Magic

     



    Hey Denny, if you have the time I'd love to see what some of these 59 caddy tail lights would look like on my ford f1. Falcon has a thread called "need some help", on which Don posted a truck with 59 caddy tail lights. Here's a link to the lights
    http://www.go-kat-go.com/taillights.html
    Heres a shot of my truck from behind. Also like to see the truck in red! Just a request, but if you'd like, just tell me how you do what you do!

    I love those Caddy tail lights! Look like miny flame throwers! Also a first line defence to rear ending, since with the roll pan no bumper back there! I might just go with them! Here is a pick of a deep red f1 that I really like the color of, found this one online somewhere!

    Or this one hard choice. The first has an older look to it, the second more peppy!

    Not at all speedy. I love old trucks, any kind. That Dodge looks beefy! It must weigh a ton(several actually)

    i don't like the rear fenders on the dodge since they remind me of a trailer fender. thinking of use 60's dodge fenders simular to steves rear fenders on his truck to get the box to match the cab and front clip.

    The fenders on my truck are off a newer model of something. I'll ask the previous owner. The are also not what will be on the truck when completed. So those fenders are availible if you'd like them. Too bad your not in CA. I'd give them to you. They are huge and would be not worth the cost of postage to mail. I recently found a mint original seat for my truck, but it was in Il. The cost of the seat was 150, cheap! The cost to ship it here was 250.00!

    I use to work for one of my friends dad in a junk yard and he's got a late 60's dodge with a stepside box i might get the whole box or just the fenders.
