the Yanks don't have rear amber blinkers
No, the Yanks have never had amber rear blinkers... like the FE Holden.. the stop light blinks... only one bulb in the tail
lamp... if You only have one stop lamp working, and keep hitting the brakes, the driver behind would think You were signaling to go around a corner...
bit dangerous...

the little amber lights onder the bumper on Mustangs were shoved on for us Aussies, if you have a careful look at most approx 1960 on US cars you will
see very neat jobs on the rear indicators, sometimes a new lense cut, sometimes something just added on |
