I'm not sure what number you need for headlight bulbs, they are indeed
harder to find. I was assuming you were looking for tail light, stop light
and dash bulbs.
The old style (non-sealed beam) headlight bulbs do show up on eBay
periodically, at least the numbers used in Packards like 2330s and 3230s.
See what number you need and set up the watch service to let you know when
one floats across eBay.
