I assume you are trying to keep this truck as close to original appearance as possible.
But, I'm afraid the LED lights will be more obvious than you think. Try taking a good look at LED's on modern vehicles, they have a slight flicker, an obvious brightness, not the "warm glow" incandescents have. They may look slightly out of place on that truck.
Have you looked into finding a higher amp generator? Shouldn't be hard to find, especially if there is a starter/generator shop near you. That would solve the clearance light problem, allow for brighter headlights, give better charging, and be an "out of sight" improvement.

There is a lot of room inside those lights. With a little ingenuity you can mount just about any socket you need.
