'53 chevy truck, lights, mirrors, what parts are missing? *pics*

[Woogeroo]

Hiyas folks.

I took some pictures of my dad's 1953 chevrolet 3100 series pickup.

These pictures are up close pics of things that I'm pretty sure need some more parts, so I have come to you folks to ask what is missing.

Now, we have a shop manual and an assembly manual... but those don't always have 'the name' the vendors use for their parts. So I thought I'd ask in here to see 'what is missing?'

So, if you have the time and know anything about the '53ish era chevy trucks, please take a gander at the images. The biggest image size is 49 KB, and there is only one image per page, so dial up folks should not be challenged to take a peek if they are so inclined.

I put the questions for each image/part down below.


Thanks!

You can just go here, select the first one, and then click 'down' to go to the next image.

Or if u like doing things backwards, you can select the bottom one and then go 'up' to the next image.

passenger side headlight bucket

This is the passenger side, headlight 'bucket' as I refer to it since I do not know the technical term for it.

What parts are missing? I know the headlight, some kind of ring around the lamp itself... plus I'm guessing some springs for tension and adjusting.

driver side, rear, tail light area

http://hardin.home.mindspring.com/1953/04272006/05.html

We have some new chrome tailights, with the brackets that stick out from the bed. Is there anything else we need in this area for the rear tail lights? I know there is a lot of other stuff that is needed, but... in regards to tail lights... anythgin else?

driver side, rear, part the tail gate swings back and forth on

http://hardin.home.mindspring.com/1953/04272006/06.html

What is this part called? trunchion or something like that? This is the only one, unless the other one is in 'the box of parts' that came with the truck. Is this one worth keeping or what? Hmn...?
