Re: Bought some unique accessories! Super finds!
LOVE the Bosch figurehead!!!!! Would you part with it? |
Re: Bought some unique accessories! 1 Attachment(s)
Most of these parts came from a local estate sale.
Emf, I just assumed that it was the 28/29 Model A radiator thread size. Unfortunately it is for a larger thread radiator. I guess i will put it on ebay or at the Big 3 swap meet. GearHeadDriver, I might consider selling it. Please email me and I can send more pictures. [email protected] Here is picture of another gear shift light knob. |
Re: Bought some unique accessories! I have been looking for an eagle meter like that one for my 28 firetruck, but most that I find are larger, like yours, and will not fit the threads.... I'm still looking...

Re: Bought some unique accessories! Hey Neil. Is that gear shift hollow and the wire snaked up through it?
And is that an illuminated gear shift knob? I have a wired shift knob that is a turn signal switch. Left and right. Kind of similar, but haven't seen a hollow shifter lever to feed the wire through before. |
Re: Bought some unique accessories! Not sure if your flip eagle cap is "the one" or not, but Chevrolet used one as a factory mascot in 26-27 according to the book "Motoring Mascots of the World" and I think the threads are a bit larger than A's.
I also have a Beacon lighthouse which I had to replace the thermometer in, I used the guts of a really badly corroded Boyce meter and did a fair amount of machining to seal it in. Jason - is the blinker switch knob like a big mushroom that you turn the top of to activate? If so, I think I know what accessory lamp it came from. |

Re: Bought some unique accessories! A fordbarner is buying the eagle and is planning on having an adapter made.
Also, the trans tower is hollow and the wire goes up to the light in the knob. |

Jason, that knob was part of a Double S glass arrow turn signal kit. I bought a complete NOS boxed kit from eBay a few years ago. If you search eBay there is a lamp out there missing all the rest which was a lamp that is clamped to the dash and lights up so you know when it's been left on, the knob, and some wire and instructions. I will try to post a picture of the instructions - if its too large send me a message with your email and I will forward it.

Re: Bought some unique accessories! THANKS MARK!
Here is a photo of my switch and dash light. The dash light bracket has "on" and "off" stamped in it with a little white paint to show the letters. I purchased it from a man who said his accessory light was stolen off his car, so he decided to sell the knob and dash light. I think I've seen this "S" light before. http://i179.photobucket.com/albums/w...ps5mnmvc9g.jpg Quote:
