Parts for 61 pickup?

[ZEEEW]

Hello all



I have some questions on an old 61 pickup that recently moved into my yard. It needs all signal light covers, will ones from an RV/trailer light fit? Looks like back and front lights both might be an easy fix, simple round light covers.

Also, a new light switch and turn signal guts are needed, will newer mid 70's or up switches fit? Guess I could just take the switch to the parts store, but you guys can hopefully tell me of any backwards wiring with new switches etc, so I am asking here first



Thanks



Eric

Eric,



My suggestion would be to first find a recent copy of Hemmings Motor News. This publication has advertisements from all over the world - and most likely you will find just about any part for this '61 you could ever need.



I restored a '65 Impala SS that I bought from my supervisor when I was stationed in Madrid, Spain, back in '78. I had that thing for 10 years and went from front to rear bumper and found just about everything in Hemmings.



Good luck and take your time with it and you'll be proud.
