I had a rougher DT that was yellow and had the wrong lenses. I cleaned it up with correct smileys and sold it at Hershey for less then the costs of the lenses
@QuickSpeedShop man I wish I was closer to you I got an issue with an old 50s hotrod time capsule (newly purchased) 34 5w Coupe. I'm slowly getting it ready to cold start after 20+ years. Race engine 66/67 289 cobra. Unknown build info...Crane gen 1 aluminum roller rockers and I see a yellow cam down the dizzy hole. One rocker is split. I have partially rotated the engine, got a few push rods not delivering oil. My next move is to continue to manually rotate motor and retest manually, driving the oil pump hopefully get everything oiling. Then consider finding a replacement rocker arm or replace all.
I got that same light with the peaked hoods, it was removed from a draw bridge in my area some time in the 60's, i was told from my uncle who gave it to me. it has two green lights and one red.
You are right, vintage lenses made in wooden molds at Corning Glass Works! Question? Why is it that green sees me driving and immediately goes to yellow as a police car is behind me? Do I stop fast or keep going? LOL Fun factual video today!
well 400 bucks who would of thunk it I put a sequencer on mine as you mentioned and was missing the covers too so I took a aluminum stop sign and bend pieces over my knee cut to fit looks legit also might be of interest to note that they also have a puck that you can drop into each socket then screw in your bulb and they will now flash cheap and easy.
my town got it's first & only traffic light 2019 everyone partied the night away mayor set up a dunk tank gas station parking lot brought in mini donut/pronto pup venders that light is our golden gate bridge
Awesome 👍
👍
Awesome little History Video! I always wanted a traffic light, but everyone wants an Arm & Leg for them! Great video like always!!
Newer lights usually sell for around $200
I like neat old stuff
Me too!
That's cool.
👍
Now that is cool, rewire it it place it up by the gas station. That for showing off the cool traffic light.
I think that's where it will end up
Yesser...I have one of that model. Probably $400 to a collect. I bought 3 for 100...sold 2 and kept the best. Have yet to refresh and haing up

As Elwood Blues says "The light was yellow officer."
👍🏻I put Christmas string lights in each lens, each one flashes. When ever someone comes over and asks how I got it to flash like that.
That's cool

Thanks for the info 👍
The green lens looks blue to me.
It's blue-ish, not really green like new lenses. These are also slightly faded from years out in the sun
The 8 inch signal head used a 60 watt bulb the 12 inch used a 120 watt bulb.
Thanks 👍

That's funny. My town doesn't have any
You need what is called a traffic light sequencer. I had one that worked for years and just quit the other day. Need to replace it.
I'm going to get one
