Default What goes in this Emergency Box

I see these for sale on ebay all the time, but they are all empty. Anyone have a picture of one with original contents?

I've also seen those Emergency Bulb kits and fuse kits. Did they go in this box?

And what years is this box correct for?

Steve, the contents are listed on the cover of your box.
These were pre 1940, but I am not certain exactly what years this particular kit was intended for.

Given that only one tail lamp bulb is included suggests '33 and up when two filaments were incorporated into a single bulb for both the tail light and brake light.

Not an early Ford V8 kit. Most likely Model A or truck. The Early Ford V8 kits have part numbers printed on the side.

For The Early Ford V8 kits that have part numbers printed on the side, does anyone have one or a picture of one and the contents?

Terry has a good point. It also makes sense with what David suggested. Model A's were equipped with only one taillight.
