I would recommend doing a search on the forum. There have been quite a few topics about the same headlights you are looking for. If I remember correctly the lexan covers are quite expensive. Good luck.

we sell lexan and i really mean lexan, not plexi at home depot...i'm thinking about purchasing some lexan to make covers and then getting two right lights or just one and putting on each side.....with a 6 way adjustment setup i should be able to align to perfection...

guldstrand had them, not sure if they still do. If you have trouble getting them,. contact redvetracr, he has many of those race car parts.

I know a guy who got the lexan covers and the aluminum buckets from Gulstrand last year. He had to wait forver for them as I think they had to do a special run for him. They were $$$ too since Dick has the guy who made them in 1968 doing the work from the original patterns.

The guy gave me his Gulstrand catalog, so I'll have to check and see if they're in there.

I believe redvetracr has a new set for sale. I was looking for information on these too recently for a friend, and redvetracr contacted me with an offer to sell me his. I'm sure you will get a better deal from him than you would on a new set from Guldstrand. :thumbs:
