Thanks to Andy, I was able to restore my black 1959 Jaguar to 100% correct completeness with the installation of this  original CEV Italian made headlight that I had laying around for years that needed its innards worked on so that it is functional once again. I thought I would just mount it above the Union generator set headlight that I prior put on the bike in 1978 when I first got it.

Jim.

I think the guy out on the west coast Jeff that had all the white Corvettes had one with a side by side dual headlight. I've only seen a few of those.

Yeah, that's the guy. I think he lives in Oregon and is a body shop guy.

Me too. I've seen those in both plastic and metal forms. I have a very rough pair in plastic, which was actually chrome-plated in its original form, but most of the chrome finish has worn off now, revealing the white plastic underneath. It's one of those things that I have stashed away until I can figure out how to resolve it...
