Mike, the 8C prefix would indicate 1948 truck and I would think fit up to at least 1950.

As previously mentioned, Unity supplied most Ford accessory spot light units from the early Sport Light well up into the 50s at least. They made special ones for the mid century Mercury and Lincoln cars with a manufacturer specific bezel design to match the driving lights and reversing lights, all of which were accessories at the time.
