Title: WTB front fender spears for 1967 Cadillac Fleetwood Eldorado
Post by: Matt CLC#18621 on July 09, 2013, 02:59:46 AM
WTB front fender spears for 1967 Cadillac Fleetwood Eldorado in order to replace the 1968 turn signal lamps.

Alternatively, I will leave 1968 turn signal lamps in place and convert the factory bumper turn signal lamps into fog lights or day-time running lights.

Parts?
Thoughts?

Thanks,
Matt

I think that is a cool idea.    The lower lamps in the bumper would make a great spot for fog/driving lamps.   Especially if you used the original lenses to keep them factory looking.   Just retro fit the guts.

Hi David,

No idea yet.

The front end is so bold with eye-lids in closed position that I hate putting the headlights on.

Haha!     I feel the same way!    I've driven my 68 Eldorado home from evening cruise nights with just the parking lamps on later than I would have.  Not in the dark of course, but later than I would on any other car.

Here is a 67 with both type of lamps and a 70 style hood ornament.
