OK Friends, now here's the thing, even though I got a GREAT Lens for my Model 65 from Robert, one that is EXACTLY like the Headlight Lens it came with Originally in 1957, it turns out, that the Original Hood of my 65 is a little more Warped then I thought it was, so unfortunately, my replacement Lens doesn't fit all too well, not as well as I thought it would, so you all have to promise me not to Laugh when you see the Photos I took, cuz uh well, you'll see what I mean and since as you all know, this is my Dream Machine, needless to say, I'm a little Upset about this, as I do really want to keep my Model 65 ALL Original and would HATE to have to Buy a NEW Hood and Lens for it, which would need Painted and prolly not match all too well, so, but uh, here is the first Photo and you'll all see what I'm talking about here. :/

You know, I'm really starting to think Mina has a thing for Vacuums to, at least for my Hoover's anyway, lol!

Yeah, I got it right, finnaly. For some reason it did not go through the first time. You should have it now.
 
Jim,
It looks good, even though the hood is warped, but that is enivetable with that style hood unless you found an unused one. Congrats on the find and getting the parts so quick
