Is this a standard side lamp bkt.? I don't know the early stuff. The one in the photo is off a 1917 Model T American LaFrance fire truck on a car chassis and I also have one of these but not the side lights. I hope this is something stock as it just bolts to the flat firewall but not sure...Thanks, Tim Moore

Doesn't look like anything that I have seen. It could be made by using an old floor shift transmission shifter if it needs to be tapered. Just a thought. Dave

Tim,
This is probably something from the Body Builder, definitley not factory. You may have to talk to a blacksmith.

Tim- I asked the same question a few years ago and it is NOT FORD. American LaFrance made them. I will send you some pictures of the ones I had made when I get back home. Jim

Tim- Here is a picture of the original along with the ones I had made. I used a model T front fender brace to get the correct tapered piece. JimCLBCLB2
