How I did my 1937 Willys Headlamp Conversion P1
Go to page 2
What I did was to get a 37/38 Willys Headlamp Bucket,
measure 1/2" back from front edge and Cut, get Anglia Headlamp with Trim
Ring, Lens and Reflector. Remove Trim Ring Retaining Clip, Cut Headlamp
Bucket 1/2" behind Trim Ring.
Weld remaining part of Willys Headlamp Bucket to
the Front section of Anglia Headlamp Bucket.
The Anglia Trim Ring, Lens and Reflector is held together
by the curve of the Front Fender lip,ie: The Fender Hole is a bit smaller
then the Trim Ring so can't fall out. The only item to be purchased is
the Quartz Halogen Globe (Bulb)
which is readily available in Australia, can't comment
on the availabilty in USA .
The only drawback with this conversion is that to adjustment
up and down and side to side is fine, but to properly focus the Headlamp
Globe, it needs to be moved in and out, which can only be done by removing
the whole Headlamp assembly, removing the reflector, loosening the Globe
and sliding it in or out, by trail and error and then putting it all back
together. e
You can see the slight ripped paper which has been placed
around the trim ring to protect it from
scratching when the whole Headlamp Assembly was tightened
into the Fender opening.
This has since been removed.
The Headlamp still uses the original Willys Headlamp
Retaining Strap with the Screw below the Headlamp.
