When I bought my trucks (53 & 55 2nd) - neither had two tail lights. Which included blinkers (turn signals). I understand these trucks were built in the 50s when these features were not required. Times were different. Now I drive them in the 21st century and want to be safe.
I have added another tail light, turn signals, and back-up lights. This is to protect the passengers and conform with what todays people see and mentally register. I also have seat belts. Currently, they are lap belts but would like to switch the driver's and passenger's out for three point.
People have asked about hand signals. I am from Michigan and the ones I learned were - left arm straight out for a left hand turn and left arm turned up for a right hand turn.
I would not have it any other way.
