12 volt headlamp question

What are the chances of finding 12 volt bulbs for stock headlights on my '38 Terraplane? The rest of the change-over from the 6 volt system I am familiar/comfortable with.  Thanks
David

  • Ron Francis had them for my 36. Google that name. I think he might be in Pennsylvania.

    Here's a place that seems to have them.  http://www.taillightking.com/Headlight_bulbs.htm   Scroll down to the "12 volt incandescent" category and look at the A-1069, and other lamps under the same listing.  You might try the Little British Car Co. as well.  They sell the new halogen lights that fit the antique 6-volt pre-war cars; maybe some of these are available in 12-volt as well.
  • Excellent.
    Thanks guys. I'll check them out

    I've dealt with these guys, they know their stuff, their bulb base info may be useful to you.
