There is a company on the "List" that carries all kinds of oddball, hard to find bulbs. I can't think of the name offhand but somebody here will let you know.

No problem, my local parts store had me covered.  Bulbs are easy!

You have to drop the rear bumper to change the bulbs right?    I remember a buddy had a 66 Fleetwood Brougham that failed State inspection because his reverse lamps were both burnt out.   He was furious that he had to find someone to help him get the rear bumper off to change the bulbs.

You COULD change the reverse lamp and maybe the lower tail light from underneath, but it's tough.  Especially since those screws are super corroded.

Rear Tail light and reverse bulbs on a '66 CAN be changed from underneath working your way around the splash shield and using an off-set philipps screwdriver and a lot of patience.  I've done it and fortunately not had to do it again for several years.
