Tom, I had a pair of Super Oscars on a small Vauxhall sedan, umm, a number of years ago, which did look really ridiculous. Did a couple of all-nighters in that car from Adelaide to Bathurst for the 1000km race, but eventually sold the lights to a rallying friend who fitted them onto a Datsun 240Z. Replaced those lights with my two Oscars that I still have. Strange, not many people think it's much fun to drive through the night on deserted roads, but I always liked it. Still do. Anyway, those are the lights I still have, and they are sometimes fitted to the Alfa....but mainly for show

So, if anyone has a lead on some Lucas Flamethrowers.....

Cheers!
