Does anyone know where to get these things? I'm just lookin' for one...thought it might make a neat 3rd brake light for the '56 Effie...maybe frenched in below the rear window... I dunno...I was just flippin' thru some ol' mags waitin' for the rain to ease up... I can find a bunch of Model A type small round lights...I was hoping to find something a little "different" without going to a LED strip...... ThankX... -
I see them from time to time on ebay, they come in all shapes and colors. I don't know of anybody making repops except the round ford style.
I'm putting one in my 48 Fleetline. I like 'em. If only I'd had one in the front that said "DON'T LEFT ACROSS 3 LANES SO I CAN HIT YOU, MORON!. Oh well.

We had a thread on this board that was a couple hundred photos of vintage Lights and I sold a Blue "Stop" light as well as many amber and red ones. I'll see if I can find the threads... http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=277605&highlight=delage+taillights&showall=1 http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=230194&highlight=3rd+brake+lights&showall=1

My boy Big Truth from Choppahead up in Boston sells the lights, the lenses, the FU lenses and another british style STOP light http://choppahead.com/store/products/lights-brackets/
I thought Henry started those???? Although I did get one for my little rigid they started on Model's....search ebay and you can find a crap load.
I am looking for some vintage turn signal accy light for my Modified project (or early SLO taillight. I am not sure what are the best tag lines to search ebay on. would love to some something with either arrows or three bulb set up... anyone have something laying around not being used.....
WOW......I didn't see that commin'...THANKS!!! Some killa stuff...got some better ideas...I like the bus ideas... I remember back workin' at Ford Design in Dearborn a buddy was rerally wantin' a couple blowers for a go-fast boat project and stumbled across a school bus graveyard while on a family trip "somewhere".... ...and ...well...lets just say he brought back a couple of really kool souvenirs... -
I bought mine off of a Canadian hambr that said he found it inside a bus with other stuff in a junkyard.
I think he was talking about the tail light that originally came on Vincent motorcycles in the 40's or 50's, not the model a repop ones. Hopefully.
