Trucks with cab lights. (pics)
Discussing with another member about light duty trucks and cab lights. Here are 3 that i have. A 70, 71 and 72. These all have the "fireman hat" style. Does anyone have a pic of the hockey puck style after 1970? Feel free to add any info on this. Enjoy the pics also.

Re: Trucks with cab lights. (pics)
your 70 has the wrong lenses on it. In 69 and 70, they got the hocky puck ones like this...
I have clear ones on mine now, P/N is the same for back up lenses for a stepside. |

Re: Trucks with cab lights. (pics)
Andy, is there a chance the 1/2 ton models could have got the other style? I have had that truck since 89 and those were on it then. I know the hockey puck lenses were in 69-70 but i have only seen them on the c-30 and bigger in those years. On a side note, all 3 trucks have the raised roof pads for the lights.
My wifes 70 has the "teardrop" style, but i don't think it is listed on the spid in hers.

Re: Trucks with cab lights. (pics)
you can find the parts at swap meets and buy a brand new set from lmc truck and others. yankee brand chome teardrop lamps came on my dad's 72 burb 1/2 ton. i saved them and they are going on my 3/4 ton burb so it will compliment the family's 71 holiday camper like back in the 80's when i was a kid. we've had that camper for 25 years....looking forward to getting out....but anyway....the roof lamps make a truck look like a big rig and look awesome at night!

Re: Trucks with cab lights. (pics)
I`ve only seen`69s with the hockey puck lenses.I figure some`70s got some left overs from`69.It`s like they were made up real quick when they were mandated,since they are actually amber reverse lenses.At least,that`s the mold they were made from.I figure they made those until a permanent solution was made.I had an all original Custom Camper/30 that had the later domed style.
