mribbich@wi.rr.com Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 (edited) Just picked up this large headlight 12" outside diameter at a Swap meet check my lens book it says Twilite 11-1/2" lens fits Ruxton 1929-31, Peerless 1931, Franklin 1929-31, Auburn 1929-30, Duesenberg 1929-31. The mounting stud should help ID it. Hope someone can ID it for sure. Thanks!!! 1-262-392-2989 or mrib Edited August 6, 2017 by mribbich@wi.rr.com (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keiser31 Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 They look an awful lot like 1929 Franklin lamps....http://www.ebay.com/itm/LQQK-1929-FRANKLIN-vintage-pair-RYAN-LITE-headligh-HEADLAMP-Glass-Lens10-5-8-/232279808772?hash=item3614f49b04:g:4C0AAOSwepJXbJLF&vxp=mtr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mribbich@wi.rr.com Posted August 7, 2017 Author Share Posted August 7, 2017 (edited) Keisler 31 looks like he got the mounting stud right. At the top of the chrome bowel it says Twilite Headlamp if that helps. Marv.
