Going through my headlight assemblies and I came across this one:
I’m not familiar with Barndoor parts but weren’t early parts starting with 20? According to Hella date coding I is 1950 during week 27.

Maybe a mis-stamped T. That is certainly a '56 or later bucket. Definitely not a '50 bucket.

A “T” date stamp would be 1958 so that does equate.
