Just an idea would be to make some cans to fit the led trailer lites and weld them in to make a frenched look to it. round lites for an older look and the oval ones for a more modern look...

The round, reproduced, 50 Pontiac lights really look good if you can mount them on a near flat surface. May not look so good if you have to recess them too much.

Your P.U. has rolled bed edges. At the opening in the back, install some small LED lights, they look good, clean up the back and you can see them for a mile.
