55-57 Chevy truck headlights

Hey guys what do you recommend for headlights for a 56 Chevy truck. I’m trying to get my truck on the road but not sure what to go with. I posted over on the Hamb but my post was deleted because it mentioned LED headlights. I didn’t realize the headlights I posted a picture of were LED so they deleted the post lol. Maybe they should of read the part where I said I don’t want LED and I don’t like them lol. All good though. Hope you guys can help. Thank you

On my 51, I used the Cibie lights that take H4 bulbs. Just be sure to add a headlight relay. These look like original lights but they’re much brighter.
