COWL LAMPS
Cowl lamps were introduced in 1929 and had an acorn
shape similar to 1928-1929 head lamps. They were standard
features on 1929 Cabriolets, Town Sedans and Town Cars.
The lamp shells and arms were bright nickel plated, except
during the period from October through December 1929,
when they were either nickel or chrome plated to match the
head lamps.
With the introduction of the 1930 models, the cowl lamps
had a shape similar to 1930-1931 head lamps and were
stainless steel with chrome plated arms. They were standard
equipment on deluxe body types and offered as accessories
on other models. Early 1930 cowl lamps were assembled
with a 10-32 oval head nickel plated screw through the rear
of the shell.
