    It's off a boat, I have no idea what it's worth, I'll give you $8 for it.
     
  3. Very low value, and Nads' money is no good. I'll give you $6.00 American.

    Aftermarket for a boat, but I have seen similar on old open touring cars, on a stanchion on the running board

    looks like a boat light to me too. could be wrong though, i bet the shadow knows.

    yeah some boats had hi/lo beam spots. my 73 glen coe jet boat has a push ****on instead of a lever.
