58-59 Heaslights

Does any one know if the headlight Buckets of a 58-59 impala are the same for 58-59 Apache?

Re: 58-59 Heaslights

Im assuming you mean the bezels and or the sheetmetal that houses the headlights on the front of the fenders, and are also referring to 1958 impalas. I dont have an impala, but just by looking at one on the left in comparison to 4 lighter task force bezels, Im confident in saying they aren't the same.

Re: 58-59 Heaslights

No, I am refering to the bucket assembly and retaining rings which hold the bulbs in place. The Bezels are easy to find and are reproduced everywhere. These are not reproduced and I was wondering if there is another chevy that uses the same ones. But from the picture you posted I agree they look very different so the impala is probebly not the way to go. Thanks

Re: 58-59 Heaslights

Do you need some buckets or are you doing a mod? Because I have some 58-59 truck buckets sitting in my yard waiting to be used by some one who can use them. I changed my truck to a 55 front clip.

You don't know what heaslights are? Here, I'll use it in a sentence.

"As I was driving down the road, I almost wrecked into a ditch. There was a big truck coming at me. Heaslights were so bright they were blinding me!"

Sorry man, I just couldn't help myself....haha
