2. The blue-dot feature added to the tail lights. I personally do not like these, but I was wondering what this was for. Is it just a 50's fad thing like the tail pipe flame throwers etc....?

Dru, I haven't seen any updates on your project in a long time, any new progress?
I think these trucks came with white (clear) parking lenses and the amber lenses came along after new cars started coming with them. I bought a new 62 Fury convertible that came with clear lenses. Shortly afterward the amber parking lights started so I bought amber bulbs to put in my Fury. My truck had faded amber lights on it when I bought it so I am replacing them with a new set of the same.
The blue dots were never standard equipment on any car or truck but they look so cool. They were always a hot rod add-on. They look really neat at night when the brake lights are on. They are not legal in a lot of places but I put them in a 64 Chevy truck I had a few years ago and never got stopped.
