1979 Stepside, No Rear Marker Lights ? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Hey Guyz,

I recently bought a 1979 Stepside and have a question ?

On the rear fenders I noticed I don't have rear marker lights, is this the case
or was an older bed mounted on this truck ?

If anyone knows, let me know, thanks.......

P.S. How the hell do I post apicture ? lol.....

Call me crazy, but I dunno if those steppers even had marker lights out back... I could be wrong, and they may have been shaved, but yeah.

As far as identifying the bed, we'd need the see it, so here is a post that goes through posting pictures for you!

i think, but not positive that up thru 78 they had marker light's,then in 79 they took them out...

yeah us111 is right. After 79, the tail lights have the side marker built in. Before that, they are regular trailor lights. Here's my 80. Sorry I don't have one of the lights. The tail lights are basic trailor lights, but they have side marker lights on the side of them.

75STEPSIDE,

Thats what I'm talking about, my 79 does not have them, wish it did, looks much better than just the rear tail lights only.

Thanks.....

ya, when i got my '75, the step fenders had the marker lights shaved off... but, i sold those fenders to get new ones w/ the marker lights... i like the old school look as well.

BALDMIKE · 05-31-2005, 01:10 PM

Do you know where I can get replacement fenders that have the rear marker holes AND dual tanks ?
