Can’t really help as I have no idea if anything on the back of our ’48 404 is OEM. There are a pile of lights back there, so I imagine some of it is original, but who knows. Should be interesting to see what folks come up with.

Greetings; I am interested in seeing what the original tail/brake light fixture would be on a 48 vintage 509 or so. I have a pretty good idea based on the existing support bracket but if anyone has any pics or notes of true OEM item, I would appreciate it much

Great thread Tim! Sorry, I didn’t do anything directly for my T, but I did get myself a small welding table today, and I am trying to sort out the bits and pieces that I have bought over the years to help with the restoration. Not to mention that it’s my birthday, and I did indulge in a few wobbly pops!
Will have another go tomorrow!

I know I have to work on the T slowly… I’m happy when I can get one little thing accomplished over a weekend, since really, the T isn’t something that has to be done… So, since those little things never really seem to warrant their own topic, I suggest others throw their small accomplishments in here…
Thoughts? Good idea/bad idea?

have been working on a 1946 509S for about a year. I got it running the first Iday I bought it so I will probably never restore it fully because it is too much fun to drive around! Instead, it is a wo... »
