Classic/Antique Car Repair: 67 Mustang headlight, mustang coupe, fuse box


Question
Hi Brad,
I'v been restoring my 67 Mustang coupe all year long and recently had a stereo system installed with standard wattage. Upon driving home I noticed my driver's side headlight was no longer working. Upon inspection of the fuse box located uder the dash I noticed the lower glass fuse was missing so I replaced it but still no luck. I then removed the entire headlight from the housing but did not see a removeable bulb. There have been no modifications to the original wireing. I know this may seem like a basic question but forgive me as I am new to the restoration world. Is there a removeable light bulb that can be replaced or does problem have to do with fuses and wireing. Thanks for your time.

Answer
This a sealed beam and not a removable light bulb. There is a three pronged plug on the back of the light and the entire thing gets replaced. The fuses protect both headlights and if it was a fuse both lights would be out. Swap the headlight side to side. If the one from the other side lights then you know it is a blown bulb.
