Thread: What's the holy grail of headlights for you?

Me?

I'd kill for these!
Electroline 2200 series

While they aren't as rare as those, I have always liked the Guide 682C lights with the marker light on top. There are a couple of very good reproductions now, like these from OTB.

One's that work reliably.

I like the big commercial units as well as the 682c like Don likes. I also like the brass lantern types found on some T Buckets, I think they are really classy. I have Dietz on my 34 and they look fine and work, so I doubt I will change anytime soon unless I can find some original 34 Plymouth lights.

These E&J's go for some stupid money today. You either love them or hate them. I'd say rare.

How about some WW2 Japanese black-outs?

Actually the E&J Type 20 was an accessory light,. and came stock on the 1927 Jordan Playboy,......

Here's another shot of Franks Roadster for ya's (and yes, that's the Tommy Foster roadster in the background)

I almost bought a set of original 682C's for $12 but couldn't.. they were at an estate sale that my old shop teacher was running ( now an antique dealer ).. instead I told them to mark them up because they were worth way more than $12.. never went back to see if he did mark them up
