I don't see one. About 2-3 months ago there was a discussion about red LED 6V tail light bulbs. Paul in CT

Tried it with the same result. Are you sure you were not on another forum (fordbarn.com maybe)? Usually all of the lights are white and the lens provides the color. Any chance you were thinking about this one from 2010? SuperBrightLEDs carries 6 volt 1156 (Single Contact) and 1157 (Dual Contact) type bulbs. They come in Red, White, and Amber, and the 1157 type contain 19 LEDs per bulb. Price for Red is $7.95 per bulb. http://www.superbrightleds.com/cgi-bin/store/index.cgi?action=DispPage&Page2Disp=/specs/1156_57-x12-24V.htm I use these in the tail lights on my '47 Tudor, and am very happy with them. I also have the BrakeLighter 6V LED 3rd Stop Light/Turn Signal bar in the rear window. I found that after installing the LED 3rd brake light, the regular stop/turn signal bulbs were really slow compared to the instantaneous LED lamps. With the LED tail lights, they all turn on at the same time. I also installed one of the Low Pressure Brake Light Switches from Ron Francis Wiring. It was only after I could see the reflection of the 3rd brake light in the rear window,that I realized how much pressure it required to turn on, and keep the brake lights lit. Now, they light up with just the slightest touch of the brake pedal. I still use the regular 6v bulbs in the front park/turn lamps, as they provide the load for the flasher unit. I wrote up a presentation on the theory and use of LED lamps for a local club meeting a couple of years ago.
