87 K5 Build...Hmmm, whats that Ryoken up to? stay tuned...

Overview Gallery Discussion
I saw these and thought they were pretty cool. They have the turn signal intgegrated into the light. No idea on price. Just saw them in my Custom Classic Trucks magazine and saw you asking about them. They may be high though.

I find all kinds of stuff in this magazine i'm gonna incorporate into my build on my '72.

Just so happened to see a '57 chevy truck in this months magazine and his headliner radio mount reminded me of your cb mount only he did his in aluminum. Wish I could find a pic :doah:
 
UPS sucks at our marina.. they show at like 4pm... Mr Hanky turns up after coffee break!

what do the 73 to 80 crowd do to upgrade their round headlights?

I was planning on just switching to halogens and doing the relay mod to get full power to them.

Granted, I have an '86, but I've seen the halogen lenses (with removable/replaceable bulbs) for the round headlight trucks too.
 
maybe I should just get the LMC round ones and sell my 4 87 rectangular ones... think that decent older rad support i have would work as is then.... it's a single bucket...

get the #0281's

someone on here with a black burb put in dual filament HID low beams with Halogen high beams. Looks pretty good....if I could only remember who it was...
 
do it.....

I love the 6000k DDM HID's i have in my bmw. Pure white. But mine are 55watt, and were available in 35w and 55w. Not sure what that kit is.
 
yeah, i really wanna run just the single round... don't think i've seen it on the later clip... it'll fit killer... LED turn signal below it... then to the right of the headlight, in front of the expanded grill, mounted on the stinger support tube I'm gonna do some nice OR lights, maybe some nice 170 or even 240 Strykers, whichever fits better...

thats the plan... need to go rummage for those adjusting buckets...
 
I wanna run a single dual beam bulb in the corner... and since i prefer the round lights, I'm gonna run it with the later sheetmetal....

It's interesting to see how Paul does anything. I wonder if he makes coffee or a ham sandwich like he does metalwork? :haha::haha:

light and sweet baby! :haha: swiss and mustard on some good rye for the ham lunch.... :wink1:


once i get the 77 buckets down, i'll know better whats involved... worse case scenario would be me needing to source 2 round bucket depression sections from a pre-80 support.. it's possible i have one out back, if not maybe i can find someone that has one to scrap with a ratty bottom and get em to cut out the bucket area.... thats saying I can't figure out a way to do it with what i have...

i just think the proportions up front will look WAY better with the single round setup...
