Guest MLew Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Looking for a 1930 Dodge DC8 tail light, just like the one in the picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
30DodgePanel Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Sometimes you're better off just piecing it together. If you find one in complete good condition it will be rare. What is the name stamped on the metal housing assembly and what is the diameter ? Someone may have one but without measurements and more information it may decrease your chances of a response.I believe it's "Delite" or "Filite" more than likely a 3 1/4 - 3 1/2" measurement for center on center on the glass mounting screws. Am I close ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mikeburch Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 I might have one, without the lens.If you provide the information, I can check.Thank you,mikeburch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keiser31 Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Should say, "FILITE" on the top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MLew Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 I don't have one on the car now, I'm looking for one.There is currently a 3 1/2 housing on the car with a model A Ford lens and bezel. No name is stamped on it.Any parts I can find would be great, I'll get what I can. I'm trying to get the correct light. The Ford light irritates me mounted on a Dodge.

Guest mikeburch Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 (edited) MLew .................................... I was, finally, able to locate, photograph and show you just what I have, that might be part of your tail-light.The chrome tail-light bucket is broken and a little rough. It is marked, "FILITE". It is "barn fresh" and still has it'a original paint and, more importantly, STILL has the under-fender bracket, which protects the wiring. The license plate bracket is also marked, "FILITE".The second bracket is just like the first, but the bucket is painted and says, " TWOWAY". It looks like it would fit, though. The rim is brass, chrome plated and might be what you need. It does have 4-5 cracks in it, though. I think that I have seen the mopar lens reproductions, advertised.I will sell, to you, both sets for $50.00 plus $13.00 First Class Priority Mail Postage. Tracking and Insurance, included.Thank you,mikeburch CLICK ON PHOTOS TO ENLARGE Edited April 26, 2015 by mikeburch (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackStar Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 I carry replacement reproduction glass. lenses, some say DODGE.. others plain.These lights came in three sizes, one is aftermarket NORS, but for all intents looks like originals.The DC 8 may take the larger size Filitle unit... but the small on works...
