Thanks Ian!
I was looking for you at the Model T clubrooms (port rd) on Sunday but
apparently you werent there!! It wasnt much of a swap meet unfortunately but they said only just starting "open" ones so expect better in future.
Didnt mind the G4 there so wasn't a wasted trip!
Hope your trip (and the wedding etc) went well
cheers

I've had one of these come into my possession.
https://www.aulro.com/afvb/images/im...012/01/474.jpg
It's a large oval shaped spotlight, heavy, chrome, blue spot light
It is marked 'NOTEK" at the top of the chrome facia and 'ROAD MASTER" on the top of the glass.
https://www.aulro.com/afvb/images/im...012/01/475.jpg
https://www.aulro.com/afvb/images/im...012/01/476.jpg
and has british patent detail on back
https://www.aulro.com/afvb/images/im...012/01/477.jpg
It has a 6v large globe in it at the moment, I think it would look good on the S1 (if I ever find a tray!) and am wondering if I can just swap globes or is it
likely to be more involved than that?
Or is it something better kept for a 6v vehicle? (I have no idea what year this would be but tend to think 40-50's?)
https://www.aulro.com/afvb/images/im...012/01/478.jpg
I can't find much history etc about them at all...:(
anyone know anything or have any comments about them it would be appreciated. :D
I dont think it would be a spotlight. More of a flood or spreadbeam looking at the fluting of the lense.
yes, lazy terminology on my part!!..and with a 6v globe dont think it will be blinding!Quote:

Wayne
full tray for a '56 109 s1 (first of 109's)
when I last spoke to him he didnt think he had one but it was late in the evening and I was passing through with the parts 80" from the west coast.
Everything about your place stopped smelling of burnt scrub yet? :)
(Did you think about turning out your fleet of trucks to help? :) :) )
