Did Ford mount the headlights in pairs
Hi Tony
Did Ford use the blackouts in pairs or singly? Or did it depend on when and where they served. My research on Chevs showed them often mounted with only one head light. Another question where they wired for both head lights? Again on the early Chev Pattern 13 one head light switch on the late there were two one for the blackout and the other for the clear.
Reason I ask is that I have mounted one blackout and one regular which gives the look of blackout but enough light to actually drive on the road.
The black out units have from time to time shown up here on MLU and on e-pay. Before I found some real ones I fabricated as set of them. If you would like I can post a picture of the fabricated ones. These where a copy of some I had seen made up for regular autos in Britain during the war simple but effective. One of the problems with the actual black out shields used on CMP is the bulbs but these are available from different sources.
Cheers Phil
