Pork Pie Prices

How many cars come with them?

PS. I think I have 1 of the red pork pie lamps with the reflector in the middle, if that’s any use.

Then there are these available in Oz from Vintage Tyres: -

Antique Tyres - Parts - Tail Lights

I think that most people have been able to get onto the D lights OK. It is the pork pies that are (the problem) rare and expensive as poison.

As in Dennis from NW Vic who is storing a 107 for some bloke?

If you have a lense, we have a start.

Yes they do but also know how to charge for them as well - big, big $$$$.

An example of rediculous prices on pork pies. $560 for just the bodies and lenses - does not include the baseplates, globes, wiring etc.

LAND ROVER SERIES ONE LUCAS PORK PIE REAR LIGHTS 1 PAIR - eBay, Land Rover, Car Parts, Cars, Parts Vehicles. (end time 19-Jan-09 04:35:50 AEDST)

And not complete :o

I reckon a good buisness proposition would be to come up with a reasonable copy and sell for half the price. You'd make a few bucks I reckon.:angel:

There must be a Chinese factory that could knock them up for $100 a pair.:confused:

I am sure I could make the bases and the sides if I only had one to copy! :(

The chap in Adelaide could make the lenses.

The trouble with Chinese factories is that they are like any other factory; they are interested if you want thousands or millions made, not a few hundred. Not to mention that their build quality is often dodgy.

Thats not a silly idea there Charlie - I do have some spare bases.

Not that I need any porkpie lights but I could not justify the dollars paid above for a set of tail lights.
