Early Chevy/GM Discussion / 1933-36 Chevy Tail Light Housings.
« Last post by Coley on May 16, 2024, 11:09:44 PM »I am doing them again as there seems to be a need for them. If you ever bought a new lens for one, you probably noticed that there was a gasket, hollow riveted to the back side of it. Ever ponder about how well that gasket sealed the housing from the car wash or a good rain?? Guess what....it doesn't seal anything. I am just finishing up the tooling to cast them in a hard black plastic. The only thing the gasket does is cushion the glass against the 2 small tabs that the 2 screws go into to hold the lens on!!!!!
I have been a Chevy owner and mechanic for over almost 65 years. My initials are GMC. I owned a lot of Chevys from 1956 to today, my current ride is a 2006 Chevy HHR. I don't buy a Chevy until it has at least 150,000 miles on it. I then drive them to around 3 to 400,000 miles. The HHR had 229,265 miles on it. Fun car and not too bad to work on.
I will bring news of the housings when they are ready to go.
