One of the red lenses is missing. Small scratch on grey primer on one of them. Not sure what their worth and I'm new to the forum. Both bulbs are intact, not positive they work but think they do. This is the the first time I took them out of the box in almost 30 years. I bought them in Carlisle in the eighties, just for the lens which went with the car when I sold it.

They seem to be rare. I can't find them or pricing at all. Originally I was asking $750.00 each.
Your welcome to make an offer.

There's one on eBay right now at $350 including the lens.

Thanks for the heads up. I found it on ebay. It's for the 60 series, looks to be used and  has a fin on top, unlike the 75 series.

The part you are selling is identical for 39-60S, 75 and 90 series cars and for the right side of 38-60S, 75 and 90 series cars.  The fins are different between 38 and 39.  They are a separate piece attached at the top.  The left side in 38 had the license plate on top so the fin was not really a fin plus the 38 had the license plate light in the tail light so tail light housing and bulb set up was different but the lens and reflector were identical to the 39.   As seen in your pictures most of the chrome on these taillights is painted contrary to what you see on some restored cars with no paint and all chrome. The lens in these are really tough to find without chips in them on the edge.  The foam rubber that cushions the glass fails and then it is metal against glass.  I found one of these NOS and even new but old the lens was chipped.
