Taillights FS

Post by Dan Hatch » Mon Jul 29, 2019 6:35 am

Here are a couple tail lights I found. Lens is cracked in the cup one. What you see is what you get. $10.00 + shipping for both. Email me at address in pictures.

Whenever I see this type of light the licence plate lens is always missing. I don't see how they were held in place. I need one for my taillight.

Chris, Instead of a frame holding the celluloid in place lthese use tabs. The celluloid fits under the tabs that hold it in place as shown in the photo

Celluloid? I have been looking for glass. I didn't know they had celluloid then.

The earlier light uses the celluloid as shown - Langs have them for $.50 . The other light without the tabs uses a glass cup, again Langs have them for $9.95 . The cup is held in place under the red lens.

I have the light/license plate bracket in my stash...I always thought it was a 1930's light and not Model T....am I wrong ?

That is the early taillight not the one that takes the glass tea cup. Dan
