Quote from Hemmmings Article

"Owners of Full Classics and street rod builders alike covet the Woodlite, but if you're in the market for a set, you should be prepared for a lengthy wait that ends with the writing of a hefty check. Chuck Konesky of Elma, New York, who buys, restores and sells Woodlites, said he has found four pairs in two years of searching. The cost for a fully restored pair, complete with replating, "would probably be in the $3,500 range," he said. At that price, they'll do everything but light the road ahead."
