I guess that kind of adds to the cool factor. You can buy them from parts dealers brand new, but they are around $75 for just one lens. If you buy them with the medallions (which is really cool in my opinion) they can go for $145 for just one lens! The best thing to do is keep looking on ebay. These taillights show up used usually once every two weeks. I just sold two tail lights and both went for $35. That was just the lenses though. I recently saw a tail light lense and housing go for about $60. Just keep checking Ebay is your best bet. | | | | | Joined: Apr 2000 Posts: 179 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Apr 2000 Posts: 179 | Interesting look. I've seen Cadillac lights used but not the Olds. On a side note, I see you replaced the painted bumper with a chrome one. Don't scrap it! I had a very hard time finding mine. When I was looking for one on eBay, a painted '58/'59 Fleetside rear bumper would go fairly high when you could find one.
