Title: 53 Manhattan tail lights need left side
Post by: Wnero on April 06, 2020, 05:49:58 PM

Hey Folks, I need left side tail light for my 53 Manhattan.  Also were to get a rebuild kit for my carb.  I pulled a real bone head play. Pushed my Kaiser out in driveway to take my carburetor off. Well I forgot to put brake on and it rolled into my Jeep.. I am sick to my stomach. Please help.. I feel like running over my toes!
                                                        PLEASE HELP Thanks ~ Wayne

Wayne...serious bummer on the tail light...

Does your Manhattan have a standard transmission or the hydramatic?

Also, contact Larry Smith and Larry Barker about a replacement tail light...chances are one of them have one.

Looking for new or good used? Lens only or the entire housing and lens assembly?

Hi, new would be about $100, good used, depending on condition would be about half, depending on condition.  You would want to match the right side, right?  We've sent an email.
