The listing is for ONE PAIR, that is, TWO lamps.
These beautiful lamps are the famous 5.76-inch Lucas SFT576 fog lamps, sometimes known as "Pathfinders." They are the lamps that won the Monte Carlo rally when used on Minis, provided elegant illumination on Rolls-Royce Silver Clouds and Jaguar XK 140 and 150, Mark I, Mark VIIM, VIII and IX, and dressed up the front of Austin-Healeys, Triumph TR2-3-4-5-250, MGA, MGB, Magnette, MG TD and TF, and so many other British cars. They were sold as options on many of these cars, and thousands were sold as accessory lamps in the 1950s through 1970s.
We also have a great many reproduction and used Lucas 700 and 576 lamps, originals as well as NOS units, priced in accordance with their condition and rarity. We sell lenses, bulbholders and other parts for these lovely old lamps. Check our other eBay auctions or email us or call us at [phone removed by eBay] for details.
Lucas manufactured the 576 lamp from about 1952 through the 1980s, and numerous minor changes were made to the lamps during that time, including minor changes to the font of printing used on the glass, "LUCAS" on some lenses but not all, and either "MADE IN ENGLAND" or "FOREIGN GLASS" on the lenses. The chrome bodies carried a date stamp until about 1966, after which time this was deleted.
