Got me thinking ... why did some early Fords have cowl lights in the first place on some 32 Fords cars (others?) - precursor to parking lamps?
Cowl lights were pretty standard for most North American vehicles in the twenties and thirties, not only Ford. Sometimes the base models didn't have them and the more expensive models did. They served as the front parking lights.
