Question what are these for:

I acquired these parts a while back and I don't know what they are for or fit. They were in a box in a truck I bought for parts. Any help in identifying them would be appreciated. Thanks

Re: what are these for:

The lights are the same ones that came on my '67 C-30 when it was a flatbed. The brackets look different though.

Re: what are these for:

in 73 they went to that style tail light on the step side. efore that, they were round on all step sides/cab chassis models.
That style is still used on big trucks, and comes in a million plug styles.

Re: what are these for:

I know exactly what those parts are. The first pic is a pair of taillights. The second pic is a pair of brackets.

Re: what are these for:

GM utility tail lamp assemblies.Like LHM said,the factory went rectangular in`73.You may notice that before`73 all Stepsides,StepVans,Flatbeds,and cab`n`chassis shared the same tail lamp/back-ups.Those lamps were provoded with all cab`n`chassis models and Stepsides after`73.

Re: what are these for:

Those lights were used on all sorts of stuff. for instance I have a 78 f800, and a 82 f600 with that type of light. I also have a brand new set of Peterbuilt lights that look the same other than having Peterbuilt written on the lens. a rear view pic might actually tell more. The brackets look to be weld on style for those lights.
