Hi Jim, Can you tell me a good time to call, I tried earlier but got an answer message, sounded like a business number, I live in England and would be very interested in 1931 hub caps and spare tyre mount, I have a '31 4door sedan that is very original but short of a couple of items, do you have a rear lens for stop and tail light ?, it is round 4 inch diameter red glass with vertical flutes on outside and circular pattern on inside and has a screw hole on each side set horizontaly across centre height of lens, ( a clear lens would be acceptable as originaly my light should be an optional ext
