tail light electric

Post by sheppfour » Sat May 18, 2019 3:27 pm

I went to Luray yesterday and bought a tail light and bracket, the bracket is Ford p/n T.7506 A ( IT'S A LITTLE HARD TO READ). The looks like a std model t round light except it has 2 plugs on the bottom. Does anyone have an idea what it fits ? thanks Chris

It was made so it could be run on ether the magneto with the headlights or battery, one socket for each.
I know the voices aren't real but damn they have some good ideas! :shock:

The bracket factory number would be for a touring, '15-'21.

For the neat dual lamp, Ford supplied a single bulb elec. tail lamp beginning 1919. Those dual lamp taillamps are aftermarket accessory.
