Headlamp

Can someone please tell me which is the correct headlamp(s) for a late 1936 Ruby?

Thanks in advance.

Re: Headlamp

Mike,

I think I am correct in remembering that your car is a MkII Ruby, in which case I am pretty sure you should have Lucas LBD 131 Headlights fitted.

I cannot find the photo you sent me last year of the car to see if this is what you have already.

Mick Kirkland sells superb brand new, ready to bolt straight on, ones.

You can get him on: 01952 691246

Thanks Ruairidh.

Just what I needed. I'll give him a ring.

Re: Headlamp

Anyone know what the Lucas M133 headlamps were fitted to?

Re: Headlamp

Good morning - I make the headlamps that Mick Kirkland sells. The L133 were also fitted to Rubies as there are only minor detail differences between them and the 131s (although the late ones did have a 9/16" hollow mounting bolt through which the cable enters thus requiring only one hole in the wing). I can be contacted on 01785 850 916.

Re: Headlamp

Good morning, Essentially the Mk1 Ruby used LB130's and the Mk11 L131's or L133's.
