1959 Rear lights

Post by Downlemons »

Does anyone know exactly what the rear lights should look like on a 1959 Moggy (Feb) The car does not have Trafficator/Semaphores but has factory fitted blanks to the pillars. I thought that they had red lenses with sidelight,brake light and indicator all in one and the indicator flashed red! The fronts are single white lens with a twin filament bulb.
Any ideas, photos or links?
:D
A Moggy is for life not just for Christmas

This is the type of lens and base

Is yours an export car or one assembled in another country as UK based cars still had semaphores fitted until late 1961, after that there was a special relay added to make the brake lights flash.

this relay http://www.morrisminorspares.net/shop_item.php?ID=1927 usually fitted on the drivers side front inner arch.


Too many Minors so little time.....
