The Ford Barn

I'm repainting my '35 ford sedan. When I pulled the headlight buckets there was 6 large flat washers and a lock washer on the mounting bolt. Is this correct ? I thought that it should have a heavy spring. If it uses a spring, where can i get one. Thanks for the help.

The original nuts were extra thick and perhaps have been replaced with conventional nuts. There were no springs involved, as deuce lover notes.
