Re: 1934 Pittsburgh Auto Show?

One detail that had escaped my attention before. The custom fenders didn't permit the use of stock tail lights; looking at the right-side tail light it appears to be affixed to the frame end-cap where the bumper iron attaches, and probably has a twin on the other side. But the right-side one also has the window for the license plate light (stanchion missing). Quite unusual for the license plate to be right-side mounted on a LHD car. The light bucket itself looks much more like a 1935 and up style, certainly not the 1934 variety. Assuming a late 1934 build, these would have already been available.

PS - it would also be interesting to see how the gas tank filler neck was altered, as it would have normally been intergrated with the left-side fender-mounted tail light housing.
