Tail lamps

Hi guys i found these tail tamps in the scrap yard, they are made in Czechoslovakia. They have never been used but they have a little scratches on the glass. The other thing is they seem to be water proof and very tough compared to are indian ones. Here check the pictures out.

Wow, interesting find. Would look great in a Jeep or an older car say from the mod to late 30's. Could it be from a Gaz? Does look like it would be fit in a Jeep especially since its waterproof. Does he have any more such curious things?

P.S. As i mentioned earlier the lights seem to be water proof but the hole from where the wires get in will have to be sealed.

Spot lamp pics

Here are the pics of the spot lamp the reflector is mercury coated and is made in France, I have dismantled it for painting so the clamps are not fitted.The circuit on the lamps allows both the filaments of the bulb to be switched on at one time.Sorry its a Lucas lamp not Lumax.
