My truck is a 1956 GMC LCF, I'm far from finished with it and this forum has given me many ideas. http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/...88-6035-000004FD57D86E18_zps402f86b8.jpgNick

Say, is that light ABOVE the headlight original?? What was it for.
Welcome nad thanks for sharing the pic. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2010 Posts: 1,159 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Nov 2010 Posts: 1,159 | I'm NOT SURE,but I believe those lights were origionally used as fender-mount turn-signals from a later ('58,'59),G.M.C. 860. just a hunch,but that's what they appear to be. Please feel free to correct me,IF I'm wrong.HaHa!! | | | | | Joined: Aug 2012 Posts: 6 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Aug 2012 Posts: 6 | Thanks for the kind words,The lights above the headlights came with the truck and are stamped "GMC/Chev accessory Dec.1955 Ray Allen proto." under them.The only info I came up with was on Ray Allen a designer of accessories for the big 3 back in the 50's.
