[For Sale: Parts] 1950s parts: NOS boxed accessory elephant's ears, oval tail lamp, DKW thingy...

[trev]

While tidying up a little today I found these parts that I can live without.

The elephant's ears are probably 50+ years old and still box fresh. Belgian "ROG" brand. The large chrome base is detachable to use just the lamp portion. Your call.

Funky old packaging too

€30 or I might stick them on thesamba and see if any NOS freaks want them!

I picked up this single snowflake lamp a while back then got a matching pair from Johan.

shell, lens and reflector are present, no bracketry or chrome ring. €40

and finally, this odd DKW motorbike aluminium side casing. It has some kind of cable operated mechanism inside, clutch maybe? Auto-Union logo and part number inside. A quick google makes me think it's from a mid '50s DKW RT 350 S but I can't be sure.
Cool Loewy-style streamliner design to it. It would polish up beautifully. €60

maybe ebay would be a better place for this?

Can I provisionly put my name the elephants ears

 

[trev]

sure unless someone comes waving notes in my face!! What's the provision anyway?

 

[RattyOval]

I assume these fit in instead of semaphores?
If so i'll take them.

Is there something in them to make them flash. as on the box?

I bought them years ago before I got some dead semaphores to fill the holes in the pillars of the oval. I presume they'd fit the pillars. While they're not a VW specific part they would be a period accessory.

No idea on the flashy bit, there doesn't seem to be much inside the casing to make me think they would flash. Couldn't you wire in a flasher relay?
