Hi Frank,
 
Just got back from 2 days in Scotland with work so catching up with a lot  of 
list e-mail and other stuff parcels of car bits (oh yeah, the family as  
well).
 
When did turboprop aircraft become jet prop?  Is it the same engine  only 
they finally thought up a more accurate name for it since the turboprop  
doesn't 
have a turbocharger because it's a jet?
 
Got to spend some time with my Uncle who is a bigger shot in the UK oil  
industry than I realised - usually manage to chat with him for 5 mins at family 
 
funerals.  When I was a kid me and my Dad went to tow him home one  time.  I 
think my Dad had a Morris Minor or Traveller at this time and my  Uncle had a 
Hillman Minx ( I think he ran it off the road) the Minx ended up  going through 
a lot of fence posts (in rapid succession), my Uncle told me which  wrote it 
off).
 
I last saw my nepthew in 1984 when he was propably still in nappies.   He is 
now a drilling engineer on an oil rig.
 
We call these side lights.  If you tape over the hole the bowl rusts  inside. 
 Ideally I could do with a part number or a close up photo to be  sure of 
getting the right parts.
 
Regards
 
Daniel

I bought  a set of Lucas H4 7" headlamps off Ebay UK.
They also have the city lights  along with the hi & lo beams.
But the lamps did not come with the city  bulbs, the small running lamp bulb.
Any of you guys across the pond know  what type of bulb and or socket 
fits these headlamps?
It's not the H4  bulb, it is the smaller bulb and/or socket.
Mine just has a hole in the  headlamp below the H4.
I can't find anything over here that would  work.
Taping an 1895 bulb to the back of the headlamp is not an option  ;)
