Hey gang,
I'm trying to resolve some grounding issues with the headlights on my trusty, crusty '41 S-8.
Does anyone know if the post war buckets ('46-'5?) will work on the '41 fenders ?
The biggest design change that I can see was the switch to stainless-steel bezel rings; the '41 uses a heavy die-cast trim ring, with four studs that go through the headlight bucket ring & fender, and take 5/16-18 nuts on the backside, essentially clamping the bucket between the Bezel and fender.
If the sheet metal stampings are similar, I could probably adapt the post-war buckets to my car...
Short of that, am looking for NOS or very good used bezels (p/n 866209 - right, and 866210 - left), and buckets for '41 S-8 Deluxe.
Thanks !
De Soto Frank
