 Topic: Identify Lights
Posted: 17 Sep 2021 at 11:56am |
I picked up these lights a couple weeks ago and need help identifying them and what the fit on. The middle one and one on the right have orange on the mounting bracket. Appreciate your assistance. Thanks, Dave

I don't believe any tractor manufacture made their own lights. I have seen many Guide Lite brand lights that look like what you have. I equate that shape light to crawler tractors from the 40's to 50's. But crawlers where more plentiful here than wheel tractors, so my not thing of them on wheel tractors means nothing.

They look like automotive fog lights from prewar.

The first one on the left sure looks like a D Series fender mount light. I found the manufacturers name stamped on the light body on the inside near the rivets.......CM Hall. Very robust design and were also supplied on Massey Combines and early Ford 9n
Very hard to find these days!!!!

The middle light looks like a rear work light of some sort.

Agree, the left lite very much like the early 190's and D17 III and IV. The middle looks similar to early Case and Oliver tractors. Not certain about the application for the right unit

One on right is a rear work lite from a Case tractor from the early '50's. i have one identical. The center one looks like a rear lite from and Oliver. They used those lites with the flat lens.

Thanks for the responses. After looking at the light on the left closer and comparing it to a '17 Series IV light I do have, I believe you are correct in saying it is a fender mount light for the III and IV. I should have noticed that sooner. Will have to find an early 190 to make a comparison. As for the other two lights, due to the orange paint, makes sense that they are for an early Case. Thanks again. Dave

Any idea what the value of the Case/Oliver lights (middle and one on right) would be? I suspect they would be 6 volt, correct? Want to make sure before I test them to see if they work. Thanks, Dave

Much safer to test with 6v as if they are and you use 12v they will blow and need a new bulb then.
It has been a while but in the crawler world I think $100 was the asking price for that style.
