Just curious, what makes these so special? Is it a cosmetic aftermarket thing or do they really crank out the beam? Are they model specific for certain makes or years?

 

Why special?  They are very cool looking.   A favorite of hot rodders forever.

it is a love hate thing. some people think they look horrible and others love them.

 

truth be told, they dont light the way very well. very dim............

 

I have a set of copies on my 30 A cabriolet. it is fenderless and has 16" wires. Think they fit that car well, as a late 40s rod look. the car is all stock drivetrain, though I may "improve" the head.

I think you can see mine peeking out in my avatar.  When I rebuilt them 10 years ago I replaced the original bulbs with Halogen.  Have yet to try them out.  If it was today, I would probably go with LED.

deaddds- 

Some cars actually came with these E & J Model 20's either original equipment or as a dealer up option.

We believe that 1922 - 1923 Kissel Gold Bug Speedsters were dealer equipped with these, as there are a few such cars found with these lights, although there are no extant factory records. 

Actually, these lights don't throw out as much light as regular period ones.

Some cars just look "cool" with them!
