Wanted: 1954 Clipper taillight lens

Howdy.

New to the forum but have been perusing for a little while. Joined the Packard club last spring after a good friend of mine sold me his original low mile 1954 Clipper Special. Absolutely fell in love with the car and want to start cleaning it up and piecing things back together.

Unfortunately the driver's side taillight lens is busted and has been for a while now. Have had very limited luck locating a new lens between eBay and other retailers on the web. I was told at a local car show this summer that a company in California can make a reproduction lens for these cars, but I haven't been able to find any info on that.

100% interested in any leads or private sales; condition doesn't matter to me so long as the unit is in one piece. Thanks for any help or suggestions!

Tucson Packard is the source for these and has been for the last 20 years.

You'll need two as an original one will be faded and not match color wise to a new replacement.

I have a pair of pretty faded ones for sale but for your car I would buy a pair of new ones.

New ones are made of better plastics that are far more durable and UV stable.

Here is a set I put on my car about 18 years ago:
