    Any guesses on what these fit? Bought them at a swap meet at OKC fairgrounds today. I think the upper left is a repop 32 Ford says Ford Two Lite Head Lamp on it. I think the bottom left is an original 32 Ford lens, says 9 9/32X 8 5/8 at top. The others..... I don't know. Round ones on right say Tilt Ray at bottom. Top center says Corcoran Brown Cincinati at bottom, Bottom center says BI RAY Headlamp. Just something fun to do and will help me greatly.

    The guide ones on the right are probably 30s GM, the pattern looks like '37 Chevy ones I have, but the 37 ones have different cut outs around the edge, here's a '36 Chevy that looks more like yours around the edge, but the pattern seems different ?

    37 that seems to match the pattern better, notice the lugs on the edges though

  3. Top row in the middle looks like 1939 Nash-Lafayette :cool::cool:. Underneath looks like about 1939 Lincoln. ( and thats not a custom front on the Nash, thats factory original )

    look at the flat edge that would press against the gasket,there should be some numbers there,something like 920321 or something like that,google the numbers,it will tell you what they are,at least on the GM ones.
