I've seen '77s with and without reverse lights. Does anybody know how they came from the factory? Mine doesn't have them and I'm pretty sure it came from the factory like that, but I could be wrong. I used to think it was a difference between the '76 and '77, but I'm led to believe that's not the case. Appreciate anyone's input...Thx.

Back-up lights may have still been an option then or was part of a package that was not ordered on your unit.

Cool They came with backup lights. I changed mine to a four tail light system and hung driving lights under the bumper for backup lights. (you can see it in my gallery). I have just recently changed it back to stock configuration. Cool
