2Along with the Exterior section, our lenses and lights section includes parts that make the Tri-Five Chevy cars unmistakable. You will find our chrome headlight bezels and taillight assemblies along with our dead accurate “Guide” parking light, taillight and backup light lenses. The intricacy of the ’56 taillight assemblies and the ’57 headlight bezels show the true attention to detail that Danchuk takes in the production of all our parts. They are, simply put, jewelry.

You will also find our dash lenses to freshen up your speedometer cluster, radio, and transmission indicator, as well as upgrades for your headlights, LED conversions for your park and taillights and Danchuk interior dome light lenses and bezels. Lens gasket sets, screw sets, light bulbs, headlight buckets, you name it. If it has to do with the lights or lenses on your classic, you will find it here.

We take great pride in the quality of the parts we manu-facture. Give our lights and lenses a try and you will see why Danchuk is the industry leader, with quality parts and service that are second to none.

1956 TAILLIGHT HOUSING ASSEmBLyWe’ve gone over the top this time! Reproductions of these have been available in the industry for years, but not anything like this. We started with a perfect set of originals and began the process of making all the tooling 100% in the United States of America. We copied every curve and contour to make six different molds for all the castings. Then we made numerous stamping dies for the bulb sockets, gas door parts and even the original style clip that safely holds the wiring in place. After all parts looked and fit together perfect, we sent them out to get the best quality chrome plating money can buy. The end result is a set of taillight housings that are absolutely breath taking. We also included all mounting hardware, reflectors, seals, gaskets and a pair each of our spectacular red taillight lenses and clear back-up light lenses. If you truly love your ’56 as much as we do, then don’t wait another minute to order a pair of these. Made in the USA.1956 ............................................................... #1045 ......... $459.95/set

1957 TAILLIGHT HOUSING ASSEmBLyWe’ve done it again! Since Chevrolet manufactured these in 1957 these beautiful taillights have brilliantly lit up our classics rear ends and now we manufacture them ourselves. That’s right, we made all new tooling 100% in the United States of America* for these show stopping pieces and we couldn’t be happier with the results. They fit exactly like original and, do I dare say, look bet-ter. Not to blame Chevy, but we put hours of time into hand working each casting to be sure it is perfect before the chrome process even begins. Once we are sure of their quality we put the best show quality chrome on them money can buy and then finish them off with correctly pressed in light bulb sockets, bulbs, gaskets, studs, screws, seals and the most gorgeous Danchuk made red lenses there are. The only thing we left out was the car itself.

Delta headlights are available in bright white Xenon or High Intensity Discharge (H.I.D.). Lenses are available in 2 styles; classic curved lenses like the originals, or Euro that have a flat European style lens with a built-in city light that can be wired as a park/turn light or daytime runner. Note: to install Delta or H-4 headlights minor trimming to sealed beam bucket is necessary.
