Model A tail lights

Anyone out there seen tail lights on a model A that are not 50 pontiac or 39 fords. If so lets see them. Im not saying I dont like them, There just used alot.

 

Not a model a, but I have 47-48 Chevy tail lights on my 27.

I do like those. Thanks for posting

 

Nice 27 !!

 

Thank you.

How about some 39 Plymouth taillamps for a slighty different flavor? Sorry, no pics. They are a little wider tha 38-39 Ford teardrops, not so rounded at the top and have a bulging lens rather than a fairly flat lens like the Fords.

 

'58 Chevy station wagon would be different.

 

That's the style tail light I have on my '30 Coupe too.

I've always liked 50 Buick lights on hot rods too. Borrowed this picture from the HAMB.

An almost impossible to find light which might be fairly exciting on the back panel of an A coupe/roadster or maybe even A sedans is the spear-point stoplamp from the back door of 41-48 Chevy sedan deliveries. Using just the rim and lens and making up a socket housing would make these adadptable to many other applications. Damned hard to find them though.

 

You could mount anything that's flat. What about Hudson tail lights:

Coolest Taillights?

 

'39 chevy on a sedan, like mine.

 

I know it's not an A , but here are mine.... With "Blue Dots"

i'm planning on using 60 cadillac t/l. the ones in the bumper pods.

 

I'm partial to the 46=48 Chevys, but those 49=50 Fords are an unusual and attractive alternative.

Not a Model A either, but these British tail lights are kinda cool:



The tail lights on my RPU are '38 Plymouth. They're mounted on Deuce stands that I modified and rotated:

Any idea what those British lights are from?

 

^^^^^^i was wondering the same

 

Btt

 

Lucas probably made them for a variety of British cars, but this set on an early Austin Healy 100 look similar.( neat little license light too)

Thanks don , I can't find any parts sources, any ideas ?

 

Steve Lang (Langy) is in England. Maybe PM him and ask if he knows of a source. There might even be US based restoration companies that carry those, but I don't know of any of them.
