The side marker lights I am working on will be in good shape.  I have primed, and painted the metal body.  I have good amber and red lenses.  I have good stainless trim rings. 

The rubber 521 bases are not as good.  I have some rubber parts off a later Datsun, with fully enclosed back parts, that will fit the rear contours of the bed close enough.

If better rubber bases becone available for the Canby, they can be swapped in pretty easily.  Unplug two wires, remove two screws, and the marker light is free of the truck, and the rubber part can be changed.

 

I am traveling from south Portland area, to Eugene, with parts for the Canby truck.  If anyone needs to get parts down to Eugene, on Saturday, May 23, PM me.

I am already getting upholstery parts, also.

See Al's post above regarding the heater control lever.

Hell if I keep sending the wrong parts you will have a good start on next years project providing it is a 520 or 521!  LOL

 

That was my mistake on the part in my haste I pulled the wrong one and I started to send both.  Hind sight is always 20/20.

Yesterday, I had primed and painted some parts parts black. 

Today, I took the light bases, and cut holes in a piece of cardboard to hold them, like this,

PrimedLights_zpsz5lw7ig1.jpg

Took this paint,

and painted the inside of the lamp bases.

I also put the wiper motor back on its bracket.

After the silver paint dried on the parking lamp/turn signal bases, I put the them back together.  I believe there are amber lenses for these lights in Eugene.  I believe Albert has some LED lamps for this truck.  I did test both parking lamp/turn signal lights with the bulb in the picture of one of the bases.

Back side of turn signals.

In a post above, I think I saw a set of side lights coming in the mail.  I do not thinik they will be in Eugene on Saturday, I am trying to get a set of side markers ready for the Canby truck, also.
