55 Clipper tail light lense

Hello,

Just wondering who may have the best pricing on these? Most of the originals I've seen have some cracking and stress cracks in the plastic. I have seen repo's, but they are a bit pricey.

Car is a decent driver and not looking to put a bunch of money into it.

Thanks,

Dennis

You're right, they are very pricey. Believe one vendor did a run years ago, then again fairly recently and made them available to others so doubt you're going to find a huge difference--and if you do, then I'd be very suspect.

Finding one of these for my '54 was a multi-year journey (BTW the 54/55 use the same taillight lens). I ended up buying a set from Sandy Chico of Tucson Packard at a PI swap-meet he was vending at. I think $125-$150 (each lens) is about the going price. But I can tell you the modern plastics are a world better than any original one you would find. So that extra price is going to be worth it in the long run.
