Default WTB C3 headlight assemblies

Hi Guys,

Looking to buy 2 sets of headlights that would work in '69 models.
These are for hotrod projects, don't need vacuum actuators, or bezels, but will certainly consider complete.
No broken arms thanks, need complete and restorable.
Needing shipping to LA, and prefer to pay with PayPal.
Thanx
Ross

If you want to be specfic 69 to 72 headlight/supports assemblies are the same configuration.
73 to 78 and up to 82 are again another configuration.

GM replacement headlight supports has a spacer unit to fit 69 to 72 cars

The 73 to 82 headlight support will fit your 69 application but you will need the spacers to make it fit.
So not sure how hot rod mod you want to make it or how original you want the parts.

Thanks Grant for the info. I wasn't sure of the differences.
These headlights will be used on a heavily modified and widened custom tilt front.
Spacers for the support bracket should not prove an issue for us.
Originallity is the last thing I'm concerned about.

Thanks for the input Mate:- and still looking.

ok
Then use the 73 up to 82 those are much cheaper. The 69 to 72 is a little expensive.
I only have one side headlight door and support and I think all the springs and mechanisms is there less vacume pod and that is for 75 and up if you are interested let me know.

So you have bought NO sets? Asking too much for them?
