recomendation is to go with the New Signal-Stat tail lights with
stainless or chrome rims. The lights are up to code, very bright,
available at most truck service centers, and most importantly, theylook
good!! Tom Howarth just put those type on his Flying Cloud, and dothey
ever look SHARP, inexpensive also. I'll try to get you the hotlinkfor

Thanks for the info! My '53 has the semi-circle round rear, not the
"breadloaf" with a flat rear panel, so I'm concerned that putting intwo flush
Sig-Stats half way around on each side that they won't be all thatvisible
from directly behind. For the trip to Texas, I've bought some 2" x4"
surface mount combo tail lights that will be quite visible. But I'mputting
them on gently (no new holes) until I see what was original.
