cool headlight

[expjawa]

I picked this up a little while back:

I thought it was neat looking. The stacked bulbs reminded me of the headlights on '32 Ford that's shown on the Little Deuce Coupe album jacket. My question is: can someone tell me who made this or what it might be called? I'd like to find another, but have to turn up anything.

um, yea, its called "al's next bike build light". Worthless. Send it to me, Ill even pay shipping...

Hmmm...why do I get the idea that you might be pulling my leg? :mrgreen:

It doesn't work anyway - at least not until I repair the contacts for the batteries. But I'm surprised that no one knows what this thing is. I could've sworn I saw one on a recent build off bike. I'll take some more photos this weekend.

no leg pulling. Im serious. Its nice, but not worth much....Ill send ya 20 to ship it to me. I can see it on the front of a high framed chopper. Mine, not yours....LOL Doesnt need to work..

I never thought it was worth much (at least not more than I paid for it), I just want to know what it is...

I feel like Outsider13 used one on a build here, but I might be making that up.

When I see stacked lights, i think 1965-67 GTO. Great find.

Here's a few other photos. The battery tray is a bit rusty, and the insulated contacts that keep the pos & neg terminal separate need to be repaired.

lots of room to make it a double LED, from some harbor Freight free flashlights

That's kinda what I was thinking. Actually, I have E10-based 1-watt LEDs that would be a direct fit into it w/o mucking with the reflector, although that's necessarily a bad thing. Actually, maybe some modification this would make an interesting tail light well...

 

[LukeTheJoker]

Yep, would make an awesome taillight! I can see that mounted of the side of a chainstay, looking good!

That is one trick light.
