No I don't think its a Simca .. french...
Not any Humber I know of... or Vauxhall...
You unscrewed the bottom reflector of a Humber to get at the fuel tank.. neat eh!!
It looks to be from a US car... they have red blinkers over there...
so its a stop tail and blinker lamp... My Guess...
Dodge-Plymouth used a lot of Aluminium trim back in the 60s
Next Time You see a US TV Show in New York... have a look at the Big old looking Yellow Cab tail lamps...
Although Lucas is [made in England] Pommy... Its similar to their Black cabs tail lamps too....
but it should be red and amber...
Well, they are Rare as, and You possibly have the only pair in Australia.... sell them in Unique cars.... 🙂🙂

I think they are from a Morris Isis... from late 50s...
which was a 6 cylinder version of the 4 cylinder Morris Oxford.. which had a long nose...
Fairly rare... car... they had trafficators.... [semaphores]
so they didn't need amber lenses...
Anyone with a Morris Isis to check ??? 🙂🙂

Same tail lamps as the Morris Major...
Well it has Me stumped...
What about the early Black English Cab or Taxi...??
Not Sure who made them.... No Red Reflectors either...
Diesel engined I think...
It would have to be in the trafficator days, so no amber blinkers...

I have a seen a simca with something very similar to that on it. mid 60's I thought. Don't know what the model was or anything though. Simca's were always obscure out here.
They don't look anything like a type3 light but don't let that stop ya. I advice putting some sort of spacer under them to match them up tho the type three.
