You mentioned in your message that if you could find good used ones you will
reproduce them.
I have seen 47-57 GMC park lens advertised in a "Heavy Chevy Truck Parts"
ad. It does not say if they are reproduced or not.
Do you have a source to reasonably reproduce lenses? I am looking for 59 GMC
park lenses and have been told to reproduce them requires molds to be made
at an extreme cost(> $100 000).
