    Help identify this tail light housing

    Thanks

    The bucket looks like a proprietary item used on trailers and trucks. If you take that off, there might be "Harley-Davidson" stamped in the metal. Unfortunately, someone would have drilled through the stamping to mount that cheesy bucket. But, people did what they had to do to keep things rolling along.

      Thanks Eric. I will take a look and see if there is any stamp.

        Great job Eric. You nailed it. Its Harley. See photo now that the lens holder is off.
        Thanks again.

          That is savable with a carefully made steel plug of the right diameter. Ballpeen the plug tight, judicious filing, and Bob's your uncle. I've seen reproduction buckets, so good find, Pat.
