Still looking for the right headlight casting,
like it had in its later years (Pyle style).
Thanx for following along.
...cheers

Hi Mikel
These shouldn't be too hard to track down in the US.
Cal-Scale, Precision Scale did them in metal.
There are also some showing up on Shapeways.
One of the bigger hobby shops locally with an on-line store.
Hope that this helps.

I first bought a number of 3D-printed Pyle headlights at Shapeways.
But was unhappy with them, as they were printed shut on the back,
and when I tried to drill through, at least 30% broke.
Have now had some local printer design and print some for me,
with a hole right through, so a 3mm LED will fit right in.
However, for such small vehicles they are a little large,
maybe I will order smaller ones, and fiddle with SMD LEDs then.

Thanks !
Yeah I have been collecting all the views I can find,
and tried to base my build on them.
It has made me want to build it again,
in another (larger) scale...
Maybe someday.
Cheers

Here's the light in place,
maybe a little closer to the final state of the plow...

One more angle.
I think this is close to the headlight
as far as I could judge size wise and style.
(It's a Cal Scale casting)
Thank you Ebay (hahaha...)
The only thing left to add,
might be the frame that was set around the light,
not sure about that yet.
