    Exclamation

    I am in need of backup lenses for my 68 Panel. I have contacted many companies and their suppliers no longer carry them. If anybody has a source for them please let me know. I don't mind getting junkyard ones as long as they are not cracked. Thanks-Brian

    Unfortunately these were the first two places I contacted. Their suplliers discontinued them even though they are still in the catalog. Thanks for the help though.

    Talking

    VNTG SUV: Josh Kohne (CARRYALL) is currently looking through his stash of parts for a set of the lenses. On a related subject, has anyone ever modified the tailight "buckets" to use the pickup taillights. I recently order a set of clear taillight lenses from GSPP and I am determined to make them work. I think this would give the back a real clean look with the combination of the clear taillight and backup lenses.

    About the rear lenses/buckets. I've planned on doing the same thing, as soon as I get the chance. I haven't dug into the details, but as soon as I do, I post something. The lenses that you ordered, how much and what is the part number?

    I'm not sure what the part number is for those lenses because I called up and ordered them without one. The price is only $14.95 per lense. I hope this helps and please upadate this board with your progess.
