WTB 67 7 inch raised Ford script headlight,working
« on: September 20, 2014, 03:17:30 PM »
I 'm trying to match the one working bulb I have. The one I'm looking for can be TS,GE or Wagner but must be working. Car

Wagner? I have only seen repros made by Wagner. Westinghouse was a OEM raised glass FOMOCO logo mostly.TS and GE were two other OEM mfg's. Are you matching a repro bulb or a original?

+1. As Bob stated the Westinghouse FoMoCo script was cast in the glass (can be felt rubbing your finger over it). The TungSol and GE bulbs had etched scripts (not sure if acid or blasted). If you are looking to match what you have there is a huge difference with Westinghouse. The GE and TS are close enough to not stand out.

Then you would be looking for a Westinghouse bulb.
