    Whatever the traffic will bear!

    '47 Fleetline taillights aren't worth much more than you are willing to trade...I have a couple of sets myself and they are not rare...matter of fact, '47 and '48 taillights are identical...and fit every model of '47 Chevy and '48 Chevy built...except for wagons and trucks of course...

    and they make a ton of repops
     
  4. The repops aren't the Fleetline ones with the angled gl***, but the more generic flat gl***. Also the repops don't have the same dark color. I don't think they are worth a fortune, but these are nice real ones, not Taiwan junk. I prefer to use as many nice old parts as possible, even when cheap repros are available.
     
  5. Also, my landlord just paid $250 for a pair of real '39 Chevy taillights. I thought they made repros a bunch cheaper, but he wanted old ones. I was shocked at the price.
