1959 Gmc Bread Truck
 

Hello ALL, I am new here. I am in Central Ohio, and I have recently acquired a beautiful old GMC Box Van, formerly used as a Bread Truck for Holsum Bread out of Phoenix, Arizona. Not sure what I intend to do with this baby, but she runs well, and I am just keeping her intact for the moment.
I have a question: Her brake lights do not work, :whine: and my mechanic tells me that the Brake Light Switch is bad. It is a pressure operated switch, mounted on the master cylinder. NAPA can't locate a suitable replacement .... any ideas? :cool:
Thanks!

Would love to see it, welcome to the board

hmm i have no ideal about the brake lights but you should be able to rig some thing up on it.....just have to get creative...lol welcome to the board from western ky

Welcome.Is your truck a forward-control(StepVan) or a cowl/chassis(truck front end)?The brake light switch should be the same as the pickups.Try someone else,or go to NAPA and ask for the part for a pickup.
