Early Tail Light Bracket Help (2 Viewers)

Larry -

Brackets should go out in the mail today. Looks like they are interchangeable left to right - I'll send you both sides anyway.

Cheers!

Will do. I got all my lights from Mark. Bib, turn signals, and tail lights. I'll start my list tonight. When I get a sample of each then I'll start with who wants what aluminum or the metal.

the early like I think you would have would be the 25 style, SOR or you can buy bib lights wire in anther wire and then buy red lenses from SOR.

the later 64/65ish to 69 are still available from the dealer, no dice on the plastic buckets though.

I pm'd the only person I know that might be able to do this sort of thing. I have a set if we find someone that'll do it.

I can't believe the dealer still sells them. Thats about the only place I didn't look. I'll call tomorrow. I'm in on a pair of buckets if you find someone to do them. I don't know anyone in plastics.

Larry, I can certainly take a minute or two to trace the outlines of the braket and holes onto a paper and mail it to you, along with the measurement end to end, center to center etc. Just don't want to part with the actual bracket.

Hey, I know this Larry guy and I don't blame you!!!!

Obviously just kidding.
Glad you'll be in business for some rear signal lamps my friend.
We'll get em cut.

Any chance you have a pic handy w/ a side view??? If not, no big deal. I'll look at the one's on the way to Larry.

Thanks

A side view? It's flat with curled edges for strength

I need to post some pics of the buckets for

Someone should be able to lazer-cut a pile of these if they are flat....make them out of 10 gauge and you will not need to have a rolled edge...


I have to look around...I have to have one of these in the collection.

Thats my thinking to roll them is more trouble than its worth. Here is the ones I took off. Little did I know they would be so hard to find or I wouldn't have given them to another member. Pic of the new lights and wrong brackets 69 - 73.
