What are these?
 

Old guy I got the car from keeps finding boxes. Are these Fogs?

Re: What are these?
 

Could be fog, looks like other than Model A, but then again...what do I know.

Re: What are these?
 

Kinda small for fogs if that box cutter is standard size (~6") - maybe cowl lights for non-Model A?

Re: What are these?
 

yeah standard box cutter. They were in the box with window arms for my 28'. Lots of stuff that I have no idea....

Nice find,
but watch out how you sling words around like
(Old guy) LOL

Re: What are these?
 

Most likely auxiliary lights, either for the fenders or the cowl - a closer examination of the mounting brackets can help determine which. In either case, they are not standard (or Ford Optional) equipment for a Ford Car. The two probable possibilities are: 1. generic accessory lights for any number of marques; and 2. Factory-supplied lights for a specific marque.

Post #5: ". . . watch out how you sling words around."
-------------------------

"Old guy", "old fart", 'old geezer' - I prefer to think of these words as warm and enduring - much like "Grandpa".

I am not sure that is how of thought of them when I was 20. But at 75, that is how I chose to interpret the meaning. :)

He's 92...does that make him a old guy? LOL

Re: What are these?
 

yea fog lights would not have opaque lenses... basic work aux light or running light i would say

Re: What are these?
 

My grandbabies call me Grandpa or Old Phart. Either is OK by me.

Re: What are these?
 

It's just fine with me also.
Just make joke. (LOL)

Re: What are these?
 

When our "A Team" group gets together they call it a geezer breakfast. Fun and almost nobody misses. The other patrons in the restaurant like it because where can you see 12 to 15 Model A's at one time.

Could they have been used as turn signals? Like how I used Honda motorcycle turn signals mounted on the bumper that will turn up in a box when I'm an "Old gasser".

Re: What are these?
 

They look like BOSCH fender lights from the 1930s. Here is the reference from a French version of the era BOSCH catalog:

https://www.fordbarn.com/forum/attach...1&d=1483570300

So yours would be the first ones listed, part: L 75 S 104 "housing black, border chrome, mat glass".

The title states: "SIDE LANTERNS (Position Lights), with mounting bracket for the front fender of the car, for cars and trucks, 75mm hole size, mounted (held in place) with a nut"

It looks like there might even be a BOSCH logo in the center of the lens on your left light in your first photo?

Hope that helps,

Not sure if they are a pair, the bezels seem different.

Re: What are these?
 

Brad, you need to be a detective! After closer look one bezel does say "Bosch Germany" ....yes looks like the other bezel was replaced at some point.

Re: What are these?
 

Now another treasure from the boxes....what is this? Wiper motor?

Re: What are these?
 

Yep, I'm pretty sure it was Brad who solved the Lindberg kidnaping case.:D

The Lamps look like 1925-26 Studebaker Cowl lamps.
