Guys,
These are not mine but they appear to be in good shape and have the cast mounting brackets. Price seems to be good.

I couldn't get it to copy and paste but type in the numbers on the Ebay site and it should come up.

Have a good day.........Bill

I believe they are identical, or very similar, to the front work lights fitted to this military D7M, pictured at work in Europe during WW2.

Those lights with the double rivets on the side are the type used by International Harvester. The staggered single rivet versions are Cat. Both are "Guide Light" manufacture. I'm not sure if they are considered interchangeable with Cat or not.

Testimonials

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
