Thank you again.
I can't think the headlamps aren't available. The bulbs are standard civilian car bulbs of the period. Most are 6V but if the electrics on this restoration have been converted to 12V you might find it a little bit harder. The other option is to use 6V (or 12V) seal beams from ~1960 to 1980. The only drawback there is that they have round lenses and won't work with the flat, hooded CMP blackout covers.
