just found this today, wondering if anyone recognises it? am sure i have seen one on a dub before, but what is it? driving light? reverse light? age?
lense is marked Hella Made in Germany, body is in good nic but chrome a bit pitted, looks very cool.

Doesnt look like a driving light by the way the globe is positioned and the lens is smooth without prisms which directs the light. A reverse light sounds more like it.
Would make a sweet as reverse light anyway!

im not sure exactly what it is, but there was a post earlier about a kombi with a lamp just like that fitted inside the car, on the dash (pointing outwards of course).
it was apparently used to light the signs on the road. Looks alot like one of them.

69' baja: kombi box, thing spindles, irs, disc front, type 3 rear drums, 2 inch lift kit, 31x10 rears. 👍
New engine in process: 94mm p&bs, 74mm C/w chomol Crank, 35.5x39 SP heads, turbo. Wierd combo, hopeful torque monsta!
No thats not a helphos type lamp (the ones fitted to the windscreen) as it doesnt have a rubber suction ring that sticks it to the screen.
