Anyone happen to know of a place (other than possibly Greenwood) to get the recessed headlight "buckets" with the rectangular bulbs? I'm not all that eager to spend $645 on a pair of buckets, but I do like the look (and lack of convoluted mechanical and vaccuum headlight stuff). I will (of course) be saving and rebuilding the originals to put back when I'm done using this beast as my "driver".

Something like this:

cheers.
bill.

Thanks. I guess that $569 is better than $645, but still a bit more than I'd like. I need to make the decision soon, before I head off to paint (yeah, I was heading off to paint about 6 months ago).
