Hot Rods Anybody recognize these cool bullet do-dads

Got these cool chrome 8" fender "blimps" at an estate sale. They are not a light, just a reflector. Very cool but have no idea what they came off of, could use some help! The underside says 7719 SM. Thanks in advance!

 

maybe running lights from old semi truck?

 

MY GUESS would be

J.C. Whitley (I thinks that's how you spell it).

BUT not for sure!

 

JC Witless-type stuff...I agree - accessory pieces of some kind - roof of trucks, tops of front fenders, etc.

 

maybe a boat

 

Those are some cool pieces for a kustom...

 

Yes, those are mine. Where did you find them?

 

Are you sure they aren't from a mid-60's bicycle? I'm thinking beach cruiser type?

 

Condoms for 50's sci-fi space robots??

 

I think they fell off of the ACME van. Can I have them back please?

 

Dusty, you may be right. The barn attic I found them in had some other old bicycle lights. (see pics) Not sure what they are but enough guys seem to like them!

 

Corndog
I don't recognize them but I'll bet that electrified that would make really cool turn signals.

 

corndog, i have no idea what they came off of but i sure would love to make turn signals out of them for my 62 galaxie.want to sell em?

 

Those first ones aren't off a bicycle. They look like truck cab lights.

 

the mounting surface hasn't sufficient arc to fit on a bicycle fender, these are just accessory reflectors for trucks/cars and previously postulated by nearly everyone.
