Thread: installing large 30' style headlights

Tweet

thanks, the info helps I have found that the problem isn't with the lights but the headlight stands themselves! I was told nobody reproduces them. Is this true or does someone know where I can purchase these. Well I still cant get a picture attached the upload manager says my pic exceeds the 390 limit,so I have king-bee style on the car now, and the fenders have a flat spot on them for the mounting base . will this be a problem when mounting the headlight stands for the 34 commercial lights?

Depends on if the flat spot is in the stock location... here's where the spot is on my buddy's fenders...His car is a Gibbon body btw, built back in the late 80's/early 90's when Gibbon quality was still good.

BTW, did you check with Bob Drake? I can't imagine no one reproduces original 34 ford headlight stands.

"Backorder Bob" Drake sells the shorty ones in steel and stainless; http://store.bobdrake.com/misclightitems1.html

Speedway still sells them in chrome, but discontinued in steel, http://www.speedwaymotors.com/p/1231...ht-Stands.html which means the whole marketplace may be getting in short supply. Usually what this means is Vintique, or whomever was repopping them, either wore out their tooling or lost a supplier.
