Re: Carbide headlights
Brackets just don't look right to me, but there's always that one early car that had something different ha ha.

Re: Carbide headlights
Brackets are NOT Ford or model T, and do not look like anything I would recognize. The headlamps are not shown well enough to identify them.
The forks (brackets) are very unusual. Might be off a truck? Many trucks used acetylene headlamps well into the 1920s.

Re: Carbide headlights
Fits "model T" is the catch all car for any old parts.
Typical in eBay offerings.
As always, buyer beware.
