Bustingear,

The 3.25 is about right for a Tuna can. I bet it's a T, if it has Ford on the top
of the can. Do you have a photo?

D.J. is correct on the size of the lens, But if you have an EARLY HOUSING it also has a FORD script..

thought something was wrong with mine as they were funky looking for the turn signal. But its from where the yellow and red were blended some in the glass. Was going to order a set of the STOP red ones, but decided to leave them alone. appears that they are the origional ones on the car.

As I said mine is 4.25 in diameter but the outer lens plate is modeled just like the a style with two oval sections for the lens to pop through. The bottom oval is oblong and looks like a smile. The lens for the T's that I have seen are only a single oval. Also my lens cover is nickel plated with what looks like copper starting to come through.
On the top it looks to have the letters DB overlapping and inside a circle and then below that it says TYPE-B
Any ideas? I will try for a picture later
