[FC] Backup Lights

[Merv Krull]

Aircraft landing lights work well. Might need a tad bigger generator though. 
Sure makes the 4WD behemoths with 6 or 8 driving lights burning the back of 
your head back off or get busy and pass. Course it might also help to have 
bullet proof glass too! <bfceg>
I wonder if anyone went ahead with trying to graft an early 80s malibu wagon 
or camino rear bumper to an FC? back up lights are built right in....

Good afternoon folks:

Been out fiddling with my just acquired Rampside and got to wondering if 
backup lights were ever an option on these rigs.
Did a little searching (Google, 1961 FC Brochure and Kent Sullivan's FC 
registries) and came up with nothing. I suppose something could be adapted, 
but if anyone has some info and/or photos of a stock setup, please send me a 
copy.

Still working the choke splitter issue. My attempts to adapt bike or 
lawnmower cables was fruitless. Apparently bikes only use stranded wire 
cables (which won't work in a push-pull application) and the solid wire the 
lawnmower shop had was a larger diameter than the choke cable on the RS.

Now back to work.
