This is a very rare pair of early style new old stock (NOS) flat glass Lucas SFT700S foglamps. These lamps were used as original equipment on Jaguar 1 1/2, 2 1/2, 3 1/2 and Mark V saloons, XK120, Bristols, Wolseleys, Lagondas and many other quality British cars of the 1950s. They were also popular as accessory lamps for discerning motorists who wanted the best inclement weather illumination money could buy in the day.
Beautifully made, these lamps are very heavy chrome plated brass with deep bluish Rhodesian chrome, thick glass lenses and silvered brass reflectors. One lamp is still in its original box, complete with original lacquer braided wire and Lucas PS7 switch with threaded knob. They were made in Birmingham, England in 1955 and 1959.
Good quality reproductions of these lamps are available; see Related Products below.
