Re: powerbeam headlights

Power Beam headlights are correct for 71-72 model trucks. T-3 was used up until 1970. I would think that anyone restoring a 71 or 72 would love to have them. I have about 4 sets put up for my current and future projects! Not too sure about value - they probably wont fetch the bucks that T-3's do.

Re: powerbeam headlights

what is a powerbeam? was that what the 71-2 lights were called or was it a "high output" option?

Standard headlights on the 71-72s. Supposedly a little brighter than the T-3s. Said "Power Beam" in the glass.
