The background? Yes, looks like a mid 60's ¿W112? or something similar. |

Mercedes W 108,in my opinion. |
◊ 2011-12-24 02:16 |
Mercedes W108 according to me as well, both of them. The grey one (arab grey) is most probably a 250 [W108] as that colour was most common around 1965-68. The darker one is more difficult. 280? |

This page was actually meant to be for the white car in the foreground, but since it could be the same as the other Chevrolet Chevy II listed, this page instead can be for the Mercedes in the background. |

Two of them or is the left one a W115? Seems not. |

Looks to me to be a Opel Rekord (lesser know B model 1965-1967) after all Opel was GM Germany owned and probagbly designed by same designer who did the Chevy II |

100 percently not Opel Rekord B http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:REKORD-B-1.jpeg . White car is Chevrolet Chevy II 1-st generation 1962-1965 |

Indeed ![]() Is it fitted with the T4W type bulb? (See Group 2 in Automotive lamp types) |
◊ 2012-01-03 06:26 |
No, it's a "Soffitte"-bulb -strange, no English translation for that term ![]() P.S. The pdf-document, you can find at the bottom of the Wiki-page, is about ILCOS. Maybe this says something to you ![]() |

I see what you mean, ingo. It is the festoon lamp style similier to bulb category C5W at Automotive lamp types (Same area at Group 2). The bulb itself at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:C5W_lamp.JPG |
◊ 2012-01-04 21:20 |
Nono, it's not that bulb, it's smaller. I'll make a detail-pic, but not tonight any more. |

That would be interesting, ingo ![]() |

Here we go:![]() |

That is Festoon lamp with similar caps alright. The do come out smaller version as the big brother shown at the Wikipedia. I can remember that both SAAB did have Festoon bulbs for both interior lamps by the driver side door roof and behind the mirror as you can see at one of Tommy page: Danke schön, ingo ![]() |

Here's someone really confused: Link to "www.ebay.de" Are such bulbs used in British cars? ![]() No idea, why it's listed for K 70, too - there are no German made cars with such bulbs. We have them in pocket lamps, but not in cars. But also there some have bayonet-closures (as usual in cars). But in Britain you find bulbs with these closures even in the household. |

Yes 12v 2.2w MES bulbs were commonly used in instrument panels in both 'Smiths' and 'AC' instruments on cars and trucks in the UK up until the mid 1970s. Screwed into metal bulb holders before printed circuits became commonplace. |

That is Miniature Edison Screw (E10) that you find in some flashlight bulbs fitted in and some mechanical toys that has light bulbs in it with different voltages sold similar shaped bulbs. I'm sure that the seller may not know much about the K70 parts as you do ![]() Here is an unusual 110 volts Miniature Edison Screw (E10) bulb version that I found in the night light I buy from my local grocery store posted at Unknown 110 Volts 6 Watts E10 Night Light in my collection ![]() That is really interesting to know that these Miniature Edison Screw (E10) bulbs were used on these British made cars and trucks, Sunbar ![]() |
