I bought these Depress Beam headlights a while back for my roadster knowing that one lens was cracked and the other missing. I've been looking for lens some time now. Have not found anything, been everywhere with no luck. Am I screwed? Help!
Check the width...I've used '35's (about a 1/4 inch smaller and flat ) in a '36 by splitting clear 1/4 inch fuel line and wrapping around the outer edge of the lens...hope this helps...d32
let's hope not ...'35 and '36 Fords are readily available(after market or at least they were??)..not so sure about the others...d32
First thanks for the info. The diameter is 32 nd less than 8"s. I was told Chrysler 37 - 38 but I have no idea.
Mopar did use that brand on early 30s, so maybe it is what you said. There was a guy that specialized in only headlights for all old cars. Axlerod was the last name, I think his place was called Headlight Headquarters...in M***. Try google with those words.
Well thanks to Garry on ebay I found the lens, they are for a 35 Nash, you guys were correct. For what it's worth the guy I got them from is Don at Hdlthqtrs@aol.com. But I will say he is a cranky old fart, so be ready for some hot emails. Thanks again guys!
