Hi,
One of the low beam headlights burned out on my 82. The sealed beam unit is a "Guide Power Beam". Are these available anywhere?
Thanks,
Tom

I recently bought a complete set of nos Guide Power Beams for $100. I see them all the time in the NCRS Driveline(want ads) There are no reproductions being made at this time, but if you look at swap meets, you can usually find some good used ones for $15-20.

there are also headlight conversion kits that have the stock
appearing round lens, but the actual bulb gets replaced from
the back, and it uses standard size bulbs.
its a great way to keep it looking stock with modern up-to-date
lighting.
of course if youre interested in keeping it original you would not
use this setup, but its an option.

Hey, I know this is an old forum, but I found a place that is offering new GUIDE Headlight Bulds. Here is the link.
