Anoraks on, please

[handpaper]

Anyone know what these are for? They were left in my shed by its previous owner. I just want rid, but I'd rather they were useful to someone than landfill.

Look like generic caravan/trailer lenses to me.

ebay is your friend....

whack them on there and someone will have them I'm sure.

[handpaper]

I'm sure someone will, just need to work out where to put them/how to describe them

[lowdrag]

I copied and enlarged, looked up all references and came up with nowt. Looking at the size of them and that they are flat I reckon a van or lorry. I'll get my anorak now.........

For some reason I'm thinking they're supposed to be upright, and Fiat 128?

Though the hard corners might suggest generic.

I'd agree with indicator at the top, probably British, though, 60's or 70's: possibly generic, so trailer or kit car of some sort. For some strange reason a picture of an HA Viva or Viva van keeps appearing in my minds eye?

[skeggysteve]

The CEP logo on them is vaguely familiar to me and Google isn't helping.

I'd go with the generic theory.

Might be early 60's Rootes(Hillman Minx)?

Look more like commer van to me.

Correct. They are the lenses used on a self-contained light fitting such as one might screw to a caravan or a trailer board. My dad used to have a trailer board with just such light units on it. I'm not sure if he hasn't still got a spare light unit or two kicking around.

^^ + 1: CEP seem to be or have been a supplier to the caravan & trailer world.

To me they look like Vauxhall HA van - Like the 70's Telecom ones.
I think they call 'em a Bedford Beagle.
