    Hi all,
    Working on some stuff in the garage and have some failed drivetrain parts and wanted to make a standing lamp with an old torque tube and banjo center section and have seen theses “V8” lenses and others that were made for the Ford banjo. Who makes them???

    Thanks,
    Cliff Ramsdell

    quite a bit smaller than a gas pump globe lens. Have to make it yourself I guess! Just a ford script laying on a piece of glass, then sand blasted would do it

    The banjo is 10” diameter and the pump globes range from 12” to 14”. I have been searching for the last month or so knowing that I had seen them somewhere and actually found the pictured on at a swap meet this weekend but wanted to know who was making them.

    Thanks @rusty valley and @5window for the help.
