R model parking lights

[Maddog13407]

not up on Early R models as i am B models but what year did Mack move the parking lights on the R models from the headlight panels to the side of the hood?

I think the lights were changed in 1966ish.  Seen some 1966 R models with them out front and some R models with the lights on the side.  1967 vehicles seem to be all on the side.

Vehicles (cars and trucks) produced after January 1, 1968 required by law side reflectors or lights.

The 66 I almost bought had them in the headlight panels (pretty sure they were using up excess B Model parking lights). My 67 has them in the fenders.
