You can cut the holes out of any cab and run a spot light. Years ago, even on here, most removed them and filled the holes. Now they are seldom seen, and more of a novelty item. They are hard to come by in great shape though. Trevor

I have two of them, well had two. I welded up the holes on one. The holes are still there in the orange cab, and I belive I still have the spot light in my attic. I could never get it to work.

I just picked up a couple about a month ago, I've been kicking around the idea of mounting them on my 67. I only have one mount bracket and it was from another incomplete one I had laying around. I've never seen any others like mine with mirrors mounted on them. I'll get some pics sometime. They both work. Seeing them mounted on our trucks is helping make up my mind!

If I was doing a completly stock restore then I probably would have left it and not welded it up.

what do the spids say do they say anything about the light

tcb-1 05-18-2010 07:16 AM

Re: show your67 72 chevy spot light trucks
 
the spotlights were originally a dealer installed option, so the spid would not have anything on them.

ewoody625 05-18-2010 12:59 PM

Re: show your67 72 chevy spot light trucks
 
They just look like more of a stock thing than a custom thing to me. Plus I'm taking all the molding off and stuff so I just think it would look weird. Just my opinion.

I got the holes!

Re: show your67 72 chevy spot light trucks
 
oldblue, looks like you need a bracket for that hole. I have a nice original if you ever decide to go back with one. make you a heck of a deal on it!

I can also rebuild old spots. I restored the one on my truck.

I have a pair of spotlights with the little GM tag on them. I plan on using them someday on a 4X4 along with a set of NOS cab lights. I really like that look on 4X4's.

I also have one of those hand held spotlights, but I think its from an era before our trucks.

^^ agree. twin spots look perfect on a 4x!
