Dave Mellor NJ Posted June 6, 2010 Share Posted June 6, 2010 Due to their small size,my wild guess is Austin,about 31 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keiser31 Posted June 6, 2010 Share Posted June 6, 2010 Due to their small size,my wild guess is Austin,about 31Wouldn't Austins have Lucas lamps? Since these were made in the USA, I think more like Chrysler or DeSoto. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

durant frank Posted June 6, 2010 Share Posted June 6, 2010 Hi All.....The connecting bar is not Durant. The 30-31 Durants had 3 mounting holes each side.....Frank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Mellor NJ Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 Wouldn't Austins have Lucas lamps? Since these were made in the USA, I think more like Chrysler or DeSoto.I probably should have said "American" Austin,the forerunner of the Bantam, but I assumed it would have been understood. Anyway, it was just a guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMoneyPit Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 American Austin had a stamped bar with a pointed down area in the center - they used Parabeam lamps, and another brand I can't remember but it was not Depress beam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary 30U Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Oldtinpusher, Do you still have this set. The lenses will fit lots as indicated, but the bar is NOT Plymouth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drwatson Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 The bar in this picture of a 1930 Huppmobile looks about right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
