A friends asked me to buy the tail-lights for a Ford 1946 coupe (see pictures below). Can anyone help to pick up the right lights? Thank you, Claudia

Does your friend need the metal housings or simply the lamp assemblies? The metal housings show up on eBay quite frequently. They are the same 1942 - 1948. Drake offers the lamp assemblies complete with stainless bezel, lens and housing. Part number 21a-13408, about $35 each. Drake: 800.221.3673 or bobdrake.com

They are available from ThirdGen automotive, and they ship by USPS. Drake ships via FedEx, and when I was looking for one for my '46, the shipping was more that the lamp assembly. I repaired the one I had. Third Gen Automotive Phone: 844-327-5988 thirdgenauto.com 2600 Old Nashville Hwy McMinnville, TN 37110

The lights look fine to me and possibly just need new bulbs. They may not be working due to bad grounding. also.
