Any help identifying these headlight buckets would be greatly appreciated. I bought them in a box of misc items at an auction prolly bout 15 years ago. Thx.

I wouldn't call them antiques. They can't be older than about 1940.

Those are converted buckets. Popular trick on older hot rods. ( to sealed beams)
