Here is a highly unusual non-factory accessory from the '50s. The Pushomatic Power Windows for the Porsche Speedster from George Barris. They were a combined electrical/vaccum operated contraption which I pulled off the '54 Speedster. They are certainly unique. Here are a few shots of the front and back covers of the installation booklet.

Aftermarket, really aftermarket fog loght brackets!

#9 Post by charles kourmpates »

I can't believe how difficult it was to photograph these chrome brackets.

I had them on many different colored backgrounds and nothing was working. Finally, I grabbed my leather jacket, placed it on the floor and shot away.

These were the best photos. I've included all of them so you can view these brackets from different angles.

These will be used to mount my Marchal 640 fog lights. I hope you like them.

Stefan,
Here's a better pic. You can see the outline of the word "stop" blacked out on the glass.

Eric,

Great looking car and great looking fog lights!

Gee, speaking of fog lights, are they a set of the Wipac?

They look like they are and it would say in the middle of the lense?

Could you please tell me what the diamiter is, they are a perfect size.

Thanks,

Charles

3rd Brake Light

#15 Post by Don Brister »

Hey Mark,

That 3rd brake light with STOP in the middle looks like the tail light from a Vincent motorcycle.

Very nice touch.
