Murphy's law is truth!
I got my '67 4/4 back last week after six months of a full body restoration
and painting. Last evening I took it for a short ride and parked in a
shopping center parking lot to pick up spark plugs for my wife's car. When I
came out I found someone (may he be #$%?) had backed into the front of my
car . Luckily the intruding bumper was very high and the hit gentle.
Totally missed the paint work only broke my driving lamp lense and dented
the grill. I WAS LUCKY. All very fixable.
I was able to bend the grill back into reasonable shape and have successfully
re-installed it. Alas the driving light lense is unavailable and I will have
to replace the whole lamp. Does anyone out there know of a good source for a
5-6" diameter round chrome halogen driving lamp? It seems that Marchal and
Ciebie are both gone and the only lights I can find are for off road
vehicles.
Any help greatly appreciated.
