Yes that's the original "beehive" light for a '28 or '29 Plymouth all body styles. The only bit of information I can give is Durant used the same lamp and stantion as Plymouth in those years.

Hi Des,
I found the contact details for the guy in NZ that makes Plymouth tail lights.  Below is part of one of his ads from one of the web sites.

I believe he also makes the brackets for the taillights and also makes the winged radiator caps.

Maybe if you contact him you can list the prices of the parts on this site for the other forum members.

Sorry, My mistake

The winged radiator Caps are made by another person in NZ, not Dennis.

below is the ad for the radiator caps.

"Reproduction Winged Radiator cap. I have a mould and can have them cast in bronze and chromed. these fit 1928 and 1929 Plymouth and also Chrysler. Chris Duffy New Zealand email chris1929@xtra.co.nz"

Hi Guys , Some more info, I would like the lamp assembly with lens etc ( has 1 piece glass ), It is 90mm or 3 1/2" across. The taillight king has only bezel available 1144 .  I have another mounting post/bracket/gooseneck ready to go onto the guard/fender. The car ( I believe ) is a Canadian build Fisher body and I would like to match the one already fitted.
No good at the Bendigo swap but found "Oldcarlens" USA can supply but over $400 to Au Ouch .
Gary I have emailed both contacts you gave and will post results.
Thanks Des.
