I second the CPF suggestion.  You can DiY any number of ways with or without boosting the voltage up for green-blue-white LEDs.  A single red-orange-yellow LED with a resistor in series is all it takes for a simple conversion.  Or you may purchase a drop-in conversion - some use a bulb form factor (same base and general form as the bulb); others are a bit different.  The ready-made conversions are not cheap.  I've converted two [email]M@glight[/email] D-Cells to Luxeon Stars, which are drop-ins - awesome.  And two [email]MiniM@g[/email] 2-AA cells to LED - one Luxeon Star and one 3-LED (4 counting the red voltage indicator LED, also pretty much drop-ins.  And one Solitare to LED DiY.  I would not bother with purchasing an incadescent flashlight for the purpose of converting it to LED - just buy an LED torch to begin with.  But to take an oldie like yours and convert it is a GREAT idea IMHO.  You will not have any trouble getting specific info over at CPF.
Have fun!
