Hey Guys! I was wondering if anyone can tell me what these headlamps are off of. 8 3/8 across flat lens. Guide Ray NO. 1101,and the reflector is brass.
Your headlight is not really 'off of' anything Its generic. Sometimes it seems that there were more aftermarket headlights made than OEM. That cant be true but it seems like it.
Lights were very much an independent maker item in the early days, when their interface to the rest of the car was a pedestal or a headlight bar. The bigger automobile manufacturers were desperate to bring the industry in house, but I'll leave the analysis of the way sealed-beam legislation played into that for another day.
