Vintage English Rocket

Looking at the lens itself in closer detail, it does actually bear the legend 'LUCAS'.
I'm convinced it's a car front direction indicator/ front side light lens from the 1950s/60s.

I went back and looked again and you're right! Good eyes!

Looking at that light again, I can see the "Miller" logo stamped on top of the shell, but that doesn't look like a standard Miller lens. That may be a lens off a car or who knows what that just happened to (sorta) fit. A lot can happen to a bike in 60-odd years. Still kinda cool though.

You are right thanks it is a miller brand but that lenses I never figured it out because it never stays on that it is not original where the back light is so thank you for noticing that.

Nice bike! If that is a Sturmey Archer hub, it should be date stamped. I've seen a lot of old British 3 speed roadsters, but this is a new one for me.

stamped 55...sorry took so long to get back to ya!
