Posted regarding "Indy to L.A. in 36 Ford" late Feb. & few days ago. Thanks for everyone's responses. Am interested in any aftermarket auxiliary tail lights or sources that might be recommended for additional protection on my 6 o'clock. Bracket that might be added to rear bumper, etc. Thanks.

I would make some "L" shaped brackets that bolt to your bumper bolts. Then mount some accessory lights on those brackets. You can easily tap into the tail and stop light wires at the rear of your car for those extra lights. make sure the accessory lights are well grounded as grounding will definitely affect the brightness of the lights. Run and extra ground wire to the frame from the light just to be safe.

For safety reasons, I installer the Taillighter 3rd taillight in the rear window of my 36 sedan. It is higher up and bright so it gets attention. Also, it taps into the turn signals if you are so equipped. Easy install. http://jandlenterprise.com/products/products.htm Great service from this gentleman. I would highly recommend

I have an LED "third stoplight" mounted on the rear license plate (see attachment) of my '47 convertible. It flashes when the brakes are applied, then goes "solid". Mine is wired to the stoplight switch, but they are also available with internal batteries and an inertia switch. To get the wire into the trunk without drilling a hole, I drilled one of the license bracket bolts. I think every old vehicle driven on today's roads should have one. Info is available from www.brakeflasher.com I am not connected (no pun) with that supplier.
