I'm still trying to find a pair of 34 or 35 Terraplane headlights. If anyone has any or knows anyone with some, please help me out. If you have a set of headlight/beauty rings I could get by with them. Thanks

    I believe that the headlights for 1934 and 35 are different -- you're looking for either one, then? I don't recall your earlier discussion, but did anyone suggest that you contact Donald Axelrod of Massachusetts?

    34 WAS HUDSON FLEX BEAM AND TERRAPLANE TRI BEAM I'M SURE 35 WAS DIFFERENT

    '34 were bowl shaped, and '35's were more torpedo shaped, definitely quite different.

    Even the mounts are different to the fenders between '34 and '35. The commercial lamps are different. The export cars had different lamps as well.

    Do you need complete assemblies? (mounts, buckets, reflector, lens)
    And as stated above 34 or 35?
    I believe some Plymouth's used similar bucket and lens combos

    The Plymouth Tribeam type of headlight was used on Canadian Terraplanes so if accuracy isn't paramount, I'd go for them. They'll probably cost a lot less. Or if you can get the repro Ford 33/34 ones without Ford script on them (I don't know if that's possible) they'd be a good bet - replacement lenses for them cost very little.
