    I'd suggest not using them. They look huge, and will look outta place on a petite Model A

    Actually they are about the saem size as the stock A taillight. What you are seeing is also the huge mount. Take the mount off and see if some A pickup brackets will work. They bolt to the underside of the bed and you could easily modify them to bolt to the underside of the rear subrail.

    Scrap the idea and hang on to them for a future project.

    Add some 39 Ford taillights in the rear panel or some 50 Olds lights. HRP

    How much do you want for the headlights??? That will open up the doors for any taillights...

    Did you look into the model a pickup bracket? I think it will work for you. It would bolt to the back of your taillights. This is the bracket.

    I think you mean '50 Pontiac instead of '50 Olds.
