Default Looking for Some Help. Not Model A

Hi Guys: I broke a Headlight lense and I'm looking for a replacement. If anyone has one to sell send me a message.

On the Lense it says, McKee Lens Type - M Serial # 159188 Size 8 5/8"
Pat. April 2nd, 1917

Thanks: John Poole

Thanks Guys It's almost the same.1/8" different in size but I'm sure it will work. Isn't the internet an amazing thing some times.

If yours is 8 5/8, it would be a half inch smaller. That's quite a bit.

I'm curious, you listed this as "Not Model A." What is that lens out of?

The Lense is from a 1919 Grey Dort. (Canadian car built in Chatham Ont.) a Brother to a Dort in the US.

Thanks for the interest. John Poole
