I came across this one recently. It caught my eye because of the dimpled or frosted lense. It has "tract-o-lite", "B", & the Ford script cast into the face of the lense. No stampings at all on the bezel or bucket.

I'm hoping it is correct for my '48 8N. The worklight I now have on it is the spiral or circle lense which I think is correct for the '50-'52's.

I know worklights were offered before(in kits)for the 2N, but I don't think they were switched on the bucket, were they?

Looks like all the wiring is original, the loop connectors on the switch. Don't know if it works or not, don't have a 6v battery or charger here at the house to test it. If it doesn't work, how do you separate the lense from the bulb? Melt the solder?
