Thats not to say they didn't! Perhaps 6cylindersovertexas will see this post. He is THE MAN when it comes to 37's.

Probably Chevrolet should have referred to what appears to be a dome light as a "Cargo Light". That's what it really was and Jeff is correct - it was in the rear of the panel truck to light the cargo area. Joe

The dome light was available on the 1936 GMC pickup cab, but only in the Deluxe option cab. No actual proof, but you could assume, I guess that the Chevrolets were the same. | | | | | Joined: Feb 2003 Posts: 1,377 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Feb 2003 Posts: 1,377 | I would like to see the dome light in a 36 GMC so I would know where it was mounted and what it looks like as I could use one in my 37 chevy. Jeff | | | | | Joined: Feb 2000 Posts: 5,228 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Feb 2000 Posts: 5,228 | None of the '37 I have seen had a dome light. Mine had old original wires still in it and there was nothing running up top. Joe | | |
