Lovie Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 What car do these 4 lights belong to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sagefinds Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 I think some Franklins had a light like that and maybe a couple other makes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PFitz Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 Franklin "Treslite" for late 1930 Series 147, 1931 Series 153, and 1932 Series 16. If it has a slightly raised bead around the rim, it is Marmon. Paul 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drwatson Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 (edited) Photo shows what looks like your light on a 1930 Marmon. Also here's a view of the backside. You say you have "4 lights" but I'm only seeing 1. Need a photo of the backside too. Update: I added another photo showing what looks like the same light on a 1932 Franklin. The photos: 1930 Marmon (Purple PA lic. Plate) 1932 Franklin (Black car) added.

Walt G Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 taking a measurement of the diameter may help us help you Looks like the light you show may be missing the top two lens - one clear - one amber. condition of rim and body of lamps matters - they have a tendency to split /crack with age which can be difficult to repair . Marmon application may say Marmalite on the body of the lamp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lovie Posted May 19, 2023 Author Share Posted May 19, 2023 Found almost entire car under the work bench of the house we are gutting. Is there any interest in it? We are in the Washington DC, Maryland, Birginia area. More photos to follow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keiser31 Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 (edited) That dash panel on the right and bumper look like my old 1929 Franklin items. Edited May 19, 2023 by keiser31 (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Braverman Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 I am interested in the tail lights. I need one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldford Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 Dash is NOT Marmon... Frank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drwatson Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 This picture looks like the dash on the left. It's of a 1932 Franklin Airman Sedan, the same '32 Franklin I used earlier to post a photo of its tail light. So it seems we have the remains of 2 Franklins under that bench. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
