Pacifica Pete Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 I'm on a search for a single headlight mounted marker light lens for my agency's 1949 Type 45. The old one was broken at some point. Any and all offers or leads are appreciated! Pictures of the intact one are attached.

41chevy Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 Any numbers on the lens or the housing?

Pacifica Pete Posted February 19, 2019 Author Share Posted February 19, 2019 no numbers I can find. I looked both inside/outside the housing and also on the good glass itself and found nothing. There did appear to be the remnants of some marks on the rubber base that caps the bottom of the glass but I could not read it. I'll double check again though.

Pacifica Pete Posted February 19, 2019 Author Share Posted February 19, 2019 Cant find any on the housing but i think they were re-plated at some point so who knows what may have been sanded off or covered up. The molded rubber base has some markings but they are nearly impossible to read. Photos attached (not that thy are much good.)

Pacifica Pete Posted February 20, 2019 Author Share Posted February 20, 2019 Bob, that's great news. I even have the rubber gasket from the one that got broken. I'll email you and we can chat more.
