Indian blackout tail lamp bracket wanted
I'm looking for a military blackout tail lamp bracket for an early Indian Scout. These used two separate brackets for service lamp and blackout lamp.
This is what I want: Not this one:

John, no it's not there anymore, sorry.
There are repro's about, Ziggy's has had therm, but that's where you got the picture from, so presumably he's out of stock like a lot of stuff.
Grtz,
Alex

Re: Indian blackout tail lamp bracket wanted
You are right Alex. But my guess is if I asked for an $800 generator or $300 stop lamp switch he would find them to sell!Alex Schmidt wrote: ↑Sat Mar 03, 2018 3:45 pmJohn, no it's not there anymore, sorry.

I had stopped looking but now there is nothing else to do....
Clarification - It's for a military 640, the 45 cubic inch Scout model.

Re: Indian blackout tail lamp bracket wanted
john,
Do you have a spare 86553? I am looking at getting these cast, as they are few and far between. I'll have to check, but I might have a spare repro 86554. Maybe we could trade? I'll keep you in the loop as far as casting is concerned, maybe ill both pieces cast, if there is enough interest.

Re: Indian blackout tail lamp bracket wanted
Hi John, Travis here. I am currently restoring a 1940 Military Chief and noticed your post about the twin tail lamps brackets.
Did you get happen to find either one? I know Ive been asking around for the past year and they seem very hard to find which
surprises me as they were on 640 Scouts and some 340 Chiefs. Am very interested if you found or know of someone who knows
of them or casts copies of them. regards Travis.

Re: Indian blackout tail lamp bracket wanted
I am working on getting the 86553 cast. Will hopefuly be available later on this year. These will be cast off an original, and USA made. If there is interest in 86554 I can also have those cast as well.
cheers,
Pete
