For Sale: A beautiful late 1940's Ford & Mercury Factory Spotlight. This spotlight was made by Standard - Thomson for FoMoCo. It is the 1st small 4 in bulb spotlight sold by Ford / Mercury Dealers. You might say, I've never seen a spotlight like this before. There is a reason. They are rare. Introduced in 1947 after the new small sealed beam bulb was introduced, it appears to me only a small number were sold. I bought a used 1948 Mercury Convertible back in the 1970s that had one of these spotlights. That is how I learned about it. See the pictures where I posted a copy of the original FoMoCo announcement to dealers. The original Ford part number is 6A-18552. I have post 1 picture. If you are interested, let me know and I will send many more pictures.
1) The spotlight body, mounting bracket and shaft are NOS. There is a very small stress crack on the bottom of the ring which holds the bulb in place. The stress crack isn't causing any problems. The bulb is held securely in place. I see no sign this spotlight has ever been used. Wiring is like new with the factory solder tip is still on the end of the power wire.
2) Chrome is beautiful and the bulb is good. No dents, no dings. I tested the spotlight with 6v power. IT WORKS.
3) The handle is very nice used. The on/off switch is used but excellent. Everything works on this spotlight.
4) This is a 6V spotlight. It works. I tested it with 6V power from the end of the power wire all the way to the bulb. If you need a 12V bulb, I can put a 12V bulb in before I ship. I charge $15.00 additional for the 12V bulb. The on/off switch is original and works as it should. It is a simple toggle switch.
5) This is a drivers side spotlight. The bracket is for mounting on the windshield post on the drivers side.
6) When I bought this spotlight, there was no handle. I had a nice original handle in my parts stock. Plastic is nice and it rotates smoothly.
Price is $225 + reasonable shipping. E-Mail with questions. This spotlight will look good on a car. Thanks for looking.
