Does anyone know where I can acquire either reproduction or original fittings to go in the back of the reflector. All I have is the reflectors themselves.

Casper,

I've never seen reproductions of the parts you are looking for.

Based upon your statement, I think the parts you require are: 1. The light bulb socket that is a slip fit into the center tube of the reflector 2. The socket (electrical feed) that enters the headlamp bucket from the inside and the wiring that joins it to the bulb socket. 3. the 10/32 special screw the engages the slip fit socket "L" bracket from the center of the headlamp bucket used to adjust the bulb focus.

Do you have the headlamp buckets?

Once be decide exactly what you require, I may be able to help.

I have a 26 chevy, any idea on where I can get a lense? One of my lights is broken . Also does anyone know what the wire is called that goes into the fixture that sldies into the back of the headlight? Is this a pigtail ? I would like to replace the originals as they are a bit worn and slightly corroded.
Thanks,
Mark
