These are mounted on a dune buggy I just got.
I want to know what they go to so I can properly list them.

So are originals like these hard to find? think that anyone would be interested in them or should I just not even worry about it? I'm changing them they don't look right on the dune buggy

62-up Bus.

If they have a ground wire tab on the back, they are 69-up Bay Window Bus buckets.

They are not hard to find and not worth much unless the reflectors in the buckets happen to be super mint

You can try to list the rings- but if they don't buff out- they're pretty worthless. Maybe $1 each. The cracked lenses and stripped screws always go home with the seller at swap meets.
