Default Mystery light identification...anybody?

I found this yesterday at a roadside "good junk" store.
The only marking is on the lens, (backwards) so I took the lettering pic from inside-out > I.G.C. 7523
The studs are 1/4"-20 suggesting North American built.
Does anybody recognize what it fits?

My guess is the "IGC" is the glass co. supplier for the lens and the lamp in question could be an original or after-market truck marker light.

Looks like a headlight from a motor scooter.

Looks like the cowl lamps from a 39-40 Dodge or Fargo truck.

I am humbled & amazed...ColumbiaA you hit the nail on the head!
That's what I like about this place, alot of brilliant people check in throughout the day lending knowledge & experience from all walks of life. It's my belief that collectively this forum is a resource which no search engine like Google or Yahoo can ever reproduce.

Ebay has the parking lamp listed as we speak...41-47 Dodge power wagon it says.

Thanks for helping be put a tag on this part fellas, I'll throw it on the shelf & someday, someone, somewhere will need it.

I'm not certain why I buy this stuff...I suppose mainly to keep it from the hoarders

Looks like the flutes on the lens are going the wrong way for a cowl light on the red one.
