First one..

Says "63V 61P & D" on lense. looking in the 64 parts manual, 64V is VALIANT and 61P & D I'm assuming is Plymouth and Dodge. I don't have a 61 manual so not sure IF it's actually for a 61 but assuming it is cause it says 61PLYM on the metal housing. Since I'm not really doing anything for 61's I'd be interested if it's for 62's also. Part number on the lense is 1878198 or 2483734. Number on housing is 1878197.

Distance between the screw holes is 5.7"

2nd one...

Think I have this one figured out. Again using the earliest parts manual i have, the 63P on the lense I'm assuming is for a 63 PLYMOUTH Belevedere, Fury, Savoy (not Plymouth Valiant). I'm also assuming it's for a 64 Plymouth cause the person i bought it from at the Nationals has it taggged as 64 Plymouth. I see a 2422665 part number on the metal housing. Don'r see a part number on the lense, just 63P.

3rd one

Pretty distinctive. Found the picture of it in the 65 parts manual but not in the 64 parts manual - even though it says 64V on the lense.
Part number on the housing is 2575039. Lense 2575041.

I DID look up all these part numbers online and on those Mopar part number searches. if anyone has access to any other part number list I'd appreciate the help.

Top one again. I found a pack of old gaskets a guy from Europe sent me for a 63 Signet (think tghats like a small A body / Valiant). The gasket fits lengthwise the bumps cover the holes accyately. But the short dimesion of the lense doesn't fit the gasket by like 1/4. the rectangular shape of the lense that I have (shown in the first picture above) is 1.35" x 5.2". The gasket opening I have (again from a 63 Signet) is 1.12" x 5.2".

this one looks right to me. the housing is wedge shaped with the bulb in the end. 63 b body has two.

Thanks!

I think I have the 2nd one and 3rd one kinda figured out.

the first one, after a LOT of investigation, looking thru manuals, searching used parts on Ebay, looks like the ONLY item left is a 65 Coronet.

The 65 parts manual shows a one year only, 65 Coronet license plate like thats a rectangular, pyramid shape with the light in the back and 2 tabs on each side. But it's hard to be exact from the hand drwains in the old manuals.

Can anyone with a 65 coronet verify the following dimensions;

Screw hole centers - 5.75"
Lense opening in gasket - 5.18" x 1.32"

Same one as on my 65 satellite.
