If it helps, I tried getting these as well from my local Dodge/Chrysler
dealer, as they are 1960's thru 1970's Chrysler vehicles.

I have seen some of them on E-bay listed under a Dodge Van of the 70's exact
replacements. If you look enough, you should find them somewhere. I'm sure
there is an aftermarket for them on the net, try Google searching for them,
and let us know the results if you find a source! I might get me some for
Bessie as well!

Have you tried Blue Bird parts? I ordered one for my 86 PT a few yrs
ago...they were scarce even then. Look at the housing, and see if you can get
a
number off it. a lot of these lighting housings are taken from car
manufacturers...Volvo, Lincoln, etc. that might be an avenue to explore if BB
doesn't
have the part. If BB by some chance has the part, make sure you designate
which side you want...curb or street side...they consider their "left side" the
passenger side, looking straight on at the front of the coach...to avoid the
confusion, it's either the curb side (passenger), or street side (driver).
They sent me the opposite of what I needed...FWIW....luckily, Guy Smalley
needed just what I had a year or so later when his coach was crashed...he
couldn't fine one back then, like you. Good luck...

I tried getting those parts from BB several years ago for our '81FC31" and they
were not in stock then. They did however have a "replacement" for it and I
ordered it. That was a mistake as it would have involved cutting some of the
sheet metal and installing an adapter plate for the new lights. The adapter
plate was not painted naturally so it would have involved a trip to the paint
shop as well. I didn't use them and still have them if someone is interested.
I think they were around $80 plus shipping for the pair. I would take $50 plus
shipping.

emai address right now, but he may help.
