50 chevy wagon taillight ideas

looking for some ideas or suggestions for tailights for my wagon,,i for sure want to keep my center taillight,but need turn signals,i dont like the original optional lights that bolt on the quarter panels,was thinking about doing away with the reverse lights and puttuing some kind of taillights in their place,,any ideas/suggestion would be much appreciated.

caddy bullets?

 

thanks hotrod-linkin,figured it out,,at least one way,,ill check the link you sent,,trying to learn how to do "things" on here as i am new and all,,thanks alot

 

now that i see the car...recessed lights in the bumper...yeahhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Here is a '52

 

rite on,,only thing is i got the bumper bracket to contend with,,they would have to be in the center section,,mabye to close together,dont know if that would look "cool" or not..gonna think aboy it and look it over,,thanks

mabye,,,thanks for suggestion

 

thanks for input,,i have seen those and dont really like them,like the quater panels "clean",,that is a option though,,saw some new ones like that on ebay for about $120,,thanks for input and pic,,i just saved that one

 

Mabye a late model Chevy Van tail light?

 

nice but would that be considered "traditional"?

 

Those accessory turnsignal/tail lights are stock 1939 Chevrolet taillamps.
They were used on 40-52 Sedan Deliveries, 40-55 1st Chevy and GMC Panel Trucks, and 40-52 Chevy Wagons.

 

try lookin at some 49 plymouth tail lights, odd, but would look good on the wagon fenders. just my 2 cents

 

thanks for the 2 cents:
) ill look into it.

 

...37 Ford tailites look the same but are somewhat bigger for a safety factor....and a readily available.

 

Having owned a wagon I think those that are on the 52 above are one of the best choices, other ideas are to find a set of factory wagon over riders (shorter on wagons then cars) and put the lights in those or go with a set of 40's chevy lights in the lower tailpan (kinda sq with rounded corners like the car itself

 

Thanks for the input rusty1 and boones.

i do have the overriders and bumper tips,which i will be putting on,,have seen some cool over riders with lights in them,couple post had "how to" and it looks do able for me,kinda worried i will screw them up and they are hard to find(or mabye not) but for sure a option,,thanks

i am looking for saftey factor and availibility for sure,,thanks

 

well i "kinda" decided on taillights for my wagon,these are just "mocked up",i am going to keep the "third" center taillight(which is not in the pic),what do you guys/gals think? i think i need to "tunnel' them in so they are level or titled upward a bit,,although i dont weld "yet' or have a welder "yet"..any input appreciated and welcome...im in a "slow build" as we speak and can change at will,,,thanks
