It is likely the same socket type as the #51 (BA9s). There were #44 and #47 numbers with the elongated globe. The difference is the candle power. The #44 is brighter than the #47. They used the #44 in a lot of pin ball machines so they are still available. I doubt if that is what the car originally had though. The #51 should have been OEM for quite a few years in the 6-volt era. The #51 has a very slightly higher candle power than the #44.

You can use the #44 if it fits better than the #51.
