Clock Bulb Size

[David R.]

I'm finishing up working on a 61 corvette and was putting light bulbs in their sockets. The owners manual says the clock should have a 57 bulb but the socket on the clock is to big for the base of the bulb. The bulb kit I have says to put in a 67 bulb. Does anyone know the correct size bulb that should go in the clock? I was wondering if it has the wrong socket end for the clock. Thanks ahead of time for any help.

My information says it should be a #67 lamp.

Re: Clock Bulb Size

I have a 60 clock that I just had repaired and I guess I'm in the same boat as David. The Owner's Manual (page 80), says the clock has a #57 bulb, 2 candle power which has a smaller diameter socket. Don, what other reference did you use?
