Ford Script Tail light lenses

[Brad in Germany]

.... Final pics are unusual Ford script tail light lenses we found the museum at Beamish on the MAFCGB Tour to Northumbria. Not sure what they were originally fitted to, and again would be interested to know.

Andrew,

According to the December 1st, 1933 parts catalog from England, the Ford script tail light lenses (part number AE-13450) are for Fords from 1929 through 1932. Here are the page references from the Ford parts book from London:

....and here is a close up of two original Ford script tail light lenses:

Hope that answers your question.

Fordially,
Brad in Germany

When you find a bunch more of those, be sure to send them stateside. Seen one at a swapmeet afew years ago, but thought it was aftermarket and sis not buy it. Rod

Rod,

I have been "hording" these Ford script tail light lenses for at least the past 15 years.....and so far have only found these two (see photo above)!

.....so apparently they are quite scarce.

The Ford script is cast into the back side of the lenses.

Fordially,
Brad in Germany

Top work Brad!

I have never seen any others like it, and more notably neither had any of the 25 members of the MAFCGB that were also wandering about the museum, at least not the ones I talked to.

Another mystery (to me anyway) solved.

Andrew
