Vintage Ford T Cowl Lamp, J.n.o. W. Brown Model 110 Rat Rod Restore Steampunk on 2040-parts.com
Freeport, Illinois, US
Early Vintage Ford Script Cowl Lamp
Made by
The J.N.O. W. Brown MFG Co. of Columbus Ohio
Model 110
Old repaint, dented top, and missing burner assembly, but the housing itself is in good shape with very nice heavy beveled glass lenses in the side and the opening door with wire bail latch.
Suitable for a restoration project, Hot Rod, Rat Rod, or wire it up for a porch light or for in the den, game room, or model railroad room, or put a candle in it or make up a burner assembly for it for a Steampunk or Steam Punk (not sure which way to spell that) lantern.
I've had this laying in my basement for the last 20 years or so and haven't gotten around to doing anything with it yet, so decided maybe it's time to try selling it. After watching a few YouTube videos like this one http://youtu.be/g1l8-Q8odJQ I thought it would be pretty cool to make up a small burner assembly to fit into it and make a Steampunk table lamp out of it, or mount a handle on it and carry it around at the Stephenson County Antique Engine Club's Halloween 'Train of TERROR' I help out at with crowd control every year as seen in a couple of the videos I have posted on YouTube like this one http://youtu.be/ZqKNju-SmrQ and this one http://youtu.be/pClLgSSocJE. Check out the club's website at www.thefreeportshow.com if you'd like more information on that.
But, being behind on bills, and needing money more than I need this, I'm going to have to give up on that idea myself for the time being, and let the new owner decide for themselves what they want to do with it.
Selling AS IS based on pictures and description of condition. It is OLD and worn and missing the original burner, but what's there is good other than the small dent in the top which you may be able to push back out with the proper tools. I will leave that up to you though how you want to deal with it.
Payment to be in U.S. Currency through PayPal unless picking up in person.
Shipping will be calculated by size & weight plus a small $1.50 S&H fee to help cover the cost of some of the materials used, though I usually spend more than that on tape alone making sure the packages are as secure as possible. International shipping is possible IF you're willing to pay for it. Figuring 4-5 pounds shipping weight, it will be a bit expensive, but IF I can keep it under the 4 pound mark without sacrificing the safety of it, then it could go first class International and save you some money.
Thanks For Looking & Happy Bidding !

Lexus LFA for sale on eBay
Fri, 08 Jul 2011The Lexus LFA for sale on eBay It’s not necessarily the first place you’d look for one of the rarest supercars on the planet, but if you’re looking for a Lexus LFA for sale (sort of) you can find one on eBay. That ‘sort of’ for sale revolves round the very strange conditions imposed by Lexus on US buyers of the LFA who were initially forbidden to buy the LFA outright. Instead they had to enter in to rather odd single payment lease deal with Lexus, which Lexus believed would stop buyers of the LFA from flipping the car for a profit.
