Thanks. I'll have my brother check it out. The car is at his place in NY, near Buffalo. I'm in PA.

Do you mean those rectangular directional lights on the custom copper brackets I made when I was 17? They came in handy. When the sheriff pulled me over in it on a country road 4+ decades back the conversation opened with , "license, registration, and insurance", to which I replied, "I have one out of three". He then rattled off my violations, "no registrations, no inspection, no insurance, no exhaust, bald tires, no lights", at which point I interrupted to inform him that all the lights worked. He opted to let me go with just the unregistered violation, a $10 ticket, but back then that was 5 hours work.
