Wow...I was only off by a bit .....lol

I'm going to guess it's from a Franklin motor car. I met someone that had one, but I never got to look at it. The guy told me it was air cooled. Those copper fins are cool (pun not intended, but sounds good anyway).

According to the website, it says it's a Cheeby. It took me a while to find that photo.

Was thinking Mercury (or maybe Fairlane) on the tailights but can't remember the year.

They look a lot like the 1965 Ford wagon tail lights.
