When I was building a kit car nearly 20 years ago I collected all sorts of bits and bobs.
Starting to clear out the stuff I cant see me using and found these. any idea what they are from?



They both say Marchal France
Spot 672 682
Fog 670 680
They are about 5" diameter
I was going to put them on Ebay but would like to describe them properly so any ideas and any idea of value?

Not convinced they are from anything a they are a matching pair comprising rear mounted Long range and Fog lamps

A nice period accessory though

Well just been googling they were fitted to Porche, Masarati, Ferrari etc!
Now I would be smiling if I sold them like this.

Yes I would as yours look far better - the long range lamps are probably rarer too as both the Ebay ones are Fogs

A long range Lucas rear mount as fitted to our Rover P5B certainly is as standard fit was 2 fogs.

They were available as an accessory for lesser car owners to retro-fit Wink

I have just Emailed a second hand Ferrari parts man who has kindly replied and asked for photos, so lets see, it would be nice to get them back on the correct car
