I was just curious when Studebaker went from separate bulbs for brake and turn lights, to a single bulb for both functions? Thanks, Tom

Your post inspired me to Launch into a search. I had to sift through a ton of "sales" ads...but...here's a link with probably more information than you need. However, I found it a fun and interesting read.http://ccs.dogpile.com/ClickHandler....cop=main-titleJohn Clary

Yeah, I was thinking that the one Bez worked on, HAD to have 1950 Tail Lights or something, as no '52 with '52 Tail Lights would have 2 Bulbs unless heavily modified. But hey, they have had 64 Years to do it!StudeRich

Not only that, any part of a highway is OK, for the Floridian, to park in the road and take pictures. A few years ago, that became obvious, to me, when I was behind a vehicle sporting a Florida tag. I came around a curve, and had to make a sudden stop. There they were, stopped dead in the road, parked across both lanes, cameras out windows on both sides, taking pictures of a mama bear and two cubs! ...AND I WAS ON MY MOTORCYCLE!!!
