Unknown Tail Lights

Late '40 early '50 Dodge/Plymouth?

 

Could be '52 Olds...

R-

 

I have already compared the a Olds beazel and no match also same for Plymouth

 

I couldn't find a rear view photo to back up my bet... But I'm thinking Chrysler Town and Country (woody). 47/48 maybe?

 

48-49-50 Olds

 

52-53 desoto?

 

Top is too small for an Olds, they had a large top marker.
T&C's had a stocky square light. Hmmmm.... still lookin.

 

I am thinking they look more 59-62 to me, alot of cars had really neat, different tailights, like the mercury meteor and such.....

my first inclination was 49-52 Buick

 

i have a 49 olds and would have agreed with u guys that they are not olds, but i believe they are, there was a set of these on the bay and i contacted the guy and said not olds. he showed a picture of them on a olds i dont know what year but i believe it was a 98 i believe they are 48

 

'49 Olds 98 ... should be casting #s underneath.

1951 oldsmobile 88. The lens should be a guide R3-51B

 

The pair that I have I purchaced on E- Bay and they thought there were 51-52 Olds but the circle is on the bottom and not the top like mine and also this a one piece spear and the Olds is a 2 piece. I need to find out what they are from so a can locate lenses. My idea is to graft them into the rear fenders of my 46 Dynamic Cruzer 2 Door.

 

5940213 is stamped on the bottom

 

I guess i'm not seeing the difference.

 

Ok, i goofed up my number above, 1951 oldsmobile but a 66 not 88. Look at the link and go down to guide R3-51B. That should be it.

1949 Olds 98. Referance "The Cars of Oldsmbile" by Dennis Casteele. pg 211 & 214.

 

had those on my 49 dodge coronet parts car i swear

btw thats not my car...

 

MOPAR: With out the upper spear they look like my 39 Dodge tail light, very similar lense opening and the little round opening had a nonfunctional red gl*** reflector.

 

Close, but not quite the same. Look at the bottom of the cast, the Dodge comes to a kind of point, also the refelctor on the Dodge isn't roud, it's kind of oval shaped....

 

Hay Fuzface You are the man! That is exactly what I was looking for good eye. That is my light does anyone now were I could get a set of lenses

 

the only 2 I know of are the Taillightking.com. That is the same one in my post 18. I just realized his home page link doesn't work from there but if you search Taillightking his home page comes up that way. he wants $25.00 each for NOS. If I remember correctly, they are located inTexas.

Then the other one is on ebay. Auction # 260513164973. They want $14.99 each for NOS. Both parties have 4 each. Located in PA.

 

Most definitely not '49 Dodge Coronet 4 dr. I was just cleaning a spare pair this evening. They have a round 7/8" reflector and are solid under the main lens. A bit narrower too, I believe. Also more rounded but generally of the same shape ( as you can see it the pic, above)
