Off the top of my head, I will say; Society of Automotive Engineers stop tail directional brake 1963 model year (SR is probably the manufacturer)

Sorry Gary, that is incorrect!   (You ARE correct on the SAE however!)

I will take another pass at this.  Society of Automotive Engineers, stop, tail, directional, (unknown), 1963 model year (first used), Studebaker, right/Avanti

Gary..(HINT)...the question itself has a MAJOR flaw (on purpose)...Find that flaw and you will have 'solved' this question!! :)

I do not have a lens here to look at.  Is the "flaw" that it has 62, instead of the quoted 63, since the Avanti came out so early (as a 1963 model).

You 'NAILED IT' big guy!....There never was a  SAE STDB 63 SR lens!.....However, there were a whole lot of SAE STDB 62 SR lenses!...WELL DONE!
