Working on a 65 valiant that the prior owner cut out the headlight buckets, welded in block off plates and put on headlight stickers. Im looking for a "complete" headlight assemblies I can mount in place. Looked through summit and various other sites and found replacement bulbs but looking for 7" single headlight with high & low beam. Any ideas?

Look at a street rod magazine. They have the try bar design with built in turn signals.

I used jeep wrangler headlight assemblies in the barracuda. Took a while to get them placed properly, but only required 3 holes and a little bit of grinding.

I think at the time I bought them they were $30 a piece but should be able to get from a salvage yard
