Looking for gimbal Deck lamp Healey 75

[Healey75LL]

Dear CMBA Forum members, i am new to the forum and would like your help to find a search light that is put on the deck of a Healey 75. I believe it is made by Lucas and has 2 screws on the side. Any information to find one is very welcome. thanks a lot in advance. Bruno (Healey 75 "Lucky Lady").

Hi there, is this the kind of deck lamp you require ? if so they were made by a company called "Butler" and ironically a few have passed through e-bay recently and fetched good money !

This type of lamp as far as I'm aware was the original one that Healey Marine supplied as standard with their boats in the 50's and 60's and just as a matter of interest they were also supplied with other sports boats of that time eg. Moonfleet etc... Keep an eye on e-bay one bound to pop up sooner or later

One similar (probably a bit too modern) just popped up on Ebay

I missed out on the Ebay auction unfortunately. This was indeed the one. hope that one of these comes up for sale one day again.
I continue to appreciate the hints a lot. I guess i will need to check the forum more often.
