    Just a WAG, looks like something off of an Essex, '20's vintage.

    The fluted lens makes it look like a 28 model a but the back sure isnt ford looking
     
  4. Essex lens would have the six sided logo molded at the top.

    Those aren't headlights, they are running lights- my dad has them with red, clear and yellow lenses. Look at the bracket- it's for mounting to a bumper bracket.

    I agree with Jim. Those are driving lights....

    I have a few that look like that. Mine are S & M Lamp Co. running lights. Was going to try a headlight bulb in them someday and see if it worked good enough for use as headlights.
