Ouch & Request for Help with 1932 901

The left tail light that came with my 901 had been broken and I cannot find the piece. I was hoping to use Muggy Weld' solder to join the two back together, but that appears to be impossible now.

I've looked at the major piece and it looks like it is only missing several inches at the top of the light that holds the license plate. I'm thinking that if I had a better idea of what it looked like it might be possible to make the missing part out of brass and attach it.

I've attached a picture of what I have. Can someone out there could take several pictures of theirs or if you have one for sale, it would really be appreciated.

I'm quite sure that entire piece as a bronze casting is available; don't recall the vendor - maybe try Brian Joseph at Classic and Exotic."

PS - you might also try Chris Charleton up in Paris, ME I think - he has many of the old Art Brummer molds who repro'd these parts in bronze back in the 60s and 70s.

O-D,

Thanks for the info. I'll look into the vendors you suggested and others.
