John, congratulations on acquiring such a rare and desirable car.

In the absence of any ‘correct’ 1935 lenses, what you can do is to install a pair of the very good reproduction 1933-34 lenses available from the Pierce Arrow Foundation store [Pierce Arrow Museum]

This will give your car a very close to correct appearance, and only very knowledgable Pierce Arrow aficionados will notice the mild convex shape vs the ’35’s pronounced highly-convex shape.

Having an adapter and a pair of sealed-beam headlights will be recognized as ‘not right’ by virtually anyone looking at the car. Like these on a ’32.
