Hi Roger , That's a good deal you got on those lights ! And the price to get the reflectors chromed ? He must be family ! But something to think about - The original reflectors didn't have chrome on them , they had a nickle plating . The way I understand it is the brass base material can't handle the chroming process very well but don't quote me on that . Chrome was as expensive then as it is now so that's probably why it wasn't done to things not normally out in the weather . I had a couple of reflectors re-nickled this year and it cost me more for one than you're getting three done for but they turned out looking show room new . The switch , if you are careful , can be taken apart and cleaned up enough to work like new . If you have the metal or plastic knob you are one up on me . Of the lights I've bought to get parts from none had knobs . But it's not a big deal right now , I don't have them on the tractor yet - a long winded work in progress and I'm in no hurry it'll be there when I'm ready to get to it . They're all painted but the tractor isn't . Might try and sell the pretty ones and get some beat up ones to put back on the tractor ;) Take care ...Randy

Originally the company was called the Cleveland Motor Plow Company which began in 1912, then the Cleveland Tractor Company (1917) and finally Cletrac.
