Re: Forum Picture Tail Lamp

Curt, that is a useful connection to a company who isn't afraid to tackle rare bits.

Lex, not having examined the red lens so closely, I hadn't realized that they are glass. Having them made from plastic won't make a bit of difference to the look and they would be easier to handle.

It would be useful to have a glass in hand as a sample. Would you please PM me with your email address as the one posted won't send as shown.

For anyone in need of the proper wedge of rubber that the lamp sits on in the plate holder, then Jeff Hunter is the man: jeffalanhunter@aol.com

He makes a remarkably good reproduction for about 5 GBP. The 1939/1940 Ariel tail lamp mounting rubber part number is: #6130-39

It would be easiest to start with a new brass lens ring and then fit a new lens to it with a bit of cement. I should be able to press them out after making proper dies. Of course that would require dedication and that is the tough part.
