I've been looking in Oz among other places and havn't found ANY! I think the ones on EBAY may be it for new ones. I'll keep hunting though. I have a set of the aluminum repops. They are basicly a rough casting and would need a lot of work to get them smooth and polished. I plan to give it a try though. I think for the price they are very fair. Chuck
Y's guys rule! Looking for McCullouch VS57 brackets and parts. Also looking for 28 Chrysler series 72 parts. And early Hemi parts.

The repop lenses that you show are for the car tallites, not the wagon. Not sure what your looking at but he is advertising both tail lights and backup lights as '55 and 56 Station Wagon'.  1955-56 Mercury Station Wagon Tail Lamp Lens These hard to find 1955-56 Mercury Station Wagon tail lamp lenses are manufactured in the USA with State-of-the-Art molds to the exact quality as an original including all lettering, markings and color... You're right. My bad.

I saw some repo Merc lenses and back up light lenses on e-bay. look A LOT better that the fiberglass ones. Would look great in the aluminum housing when polished chromed. Would be co$tly tho. I did see a set of original wagon taillites at a swap meet this year, that were in very nice shape for $2000.   BTW what is also similar to the Dodge tailite like the one above is a 59 Buick, and fits prperly if I remember right.

These are from a '60 Dodge Dart Phoenix/Seneca/Pioneer - they match the headlight doors on the '56 Ford. 
harder to find than the Merc parts......

Thanks you guys, especially oldcarmark for taking the time to revive this old thread. This gave me some really good leads to try. I had a 55 Vic in high school and knew a guy that had a set of these lights but I was in HS without a job so I did not get them and eventually sold the Vic. (kick myself ALL the time) About 4 years ago I found another Vic and bought it for my wife, my Vic was $10.00 in 1967, her's was a bit more. Vicariously I'm trying to get the lights now I never got for my car, it was a whole lot easier to find this stuff in 1968 then it is now.
Thanks for the help.
No matter where you go there you are.
