I've got a bunch of the old T3 headlights, and every time I test one to see if it works it burns out in a few seconds and turns the inside of the bulb white.

Default T-3 Headlights

From what I have learned over the years, Power Beams started June of 70.

Power Beams on my 1970 Nova first week of April. They have the letters GM in a little circle at the bottom. I believe these are original assembly line, and, at a local car show I saw these same Power Beams on a 1969 Camaro.
