1937 ford headlight UN-conversion 2 Attachment(s)
I have an otherwise stock 1937 "Humpback" Fordor. It came with the 1940 seal beam conversion. I want to change it back to original. I'm in the learning curve as to what the next step is. Below are some photos of the headlight assembly as it exists now. Many thanks.

Re: 1937 ford headlight UN-conversion You will need the 2 lens glasses, ( 78 at the bottom ), the 2 silvered reflectors, the 1/2 round reflector retainers ( different than 38 because of the headlight/fender angle ( although 39 deluxe or 39 Mercury would do ), the 2 outer stainless surrounds and the 2 retaining clips, as well as the 2 wiring looms.

Re: 1937 ford headlight UN-conversion Ya know, I have a couple sets of 1933-34 silvered reflectors. They measure 8" across. Will these fit?

Re: 1937 ford headlight UN-conversion Watch out, my original 1937 Ford headlight buckets were altered by a previous owner's sealed beam conversion. I am using repro until I can re-rivet the correct pieces back on to the original FoMoCo bucket.

Re: 1937 ford headlight UN-conversion You could always buy a pair of Drake's repros.

Re: 1937 ford headlight UN-conversion If you still have the sealed beam conversion assemblies I'd like to discuss purchasing them.

Re: 1937 ford headlight UN-conversion The '37 reflector is considerably smaller than those used on '33s and '34s.
