Looking for 1968 Caprice Hideaway headlights


Looking for 1968 Caprice hideaway headlights - anything from a couple loose spare parts to complete car in mint shape.

All leads appreciated!  Thanks

I always thought that setup on a 68 was real hot stuff.

6 or 7 years ago I saw a complete setup at Heighton Auto Restorations in Beiseker AB, but I'm not sure if it was 1968 or 1969. Yesterday I called Chris Heighton and he says he still has it, but also isn't sure if it's 1968 or 1969. It's in a storage bin, but can dig it out for you and send you some photo's. Give him a call at 587-287-1869 and let me know how you make out.

I think it's a 1969, but it's worth a try. If he sends you some photo's, post them even if it's the wrong year. It might take him a bit to get to it as it's a little chilly here on the prairies, like -30C chilly.

We chatted and decided I'll take them either way - even if they are 1969s.  Nice fellow!  Thanks!

I don't see how you can go wrong buying it for either year. Years ago I left a mint 69 hideaway complete front clip in a yard and I still regret that.

Chris said he looked all over for it but cant find it.  Hes a super busy guy so dont want to hassle him.  Can you please PM me and let me know more details of your visit and where you saw the hideaway front end.  Thanks!

PM sent. As above, it was a good 6 or 7 years ago that I saw them.
