Back-Up Light ?? for '34 2-4 Coupe

Posted by Tom Beidleman On 2017/6/22 2:06:15

Had a bit of an electrical issue a few days ago and eventually it was determined that when the car is put into reverse, the rear lights come on. Some how that switch shorted/malfunctioned causing the bigger problem. OK, But.....Is that the way Packard wired and handled back-up lighting back in 1934 ? Just doesn't seem correct to me.
Or instead did Packard make a stand alone back-up light or was it a generic type sold by the dealers ?
If so, any idea what they looked like and where at the back were they located ?
As always. sincerely appreciate your help.
