Those lamps on the Chardonnet TDF car?
I think they might be Vespa:

Yes Frederic, it seems to be a thing with the track event cars? Normal headlamps would give wind resistance.
'Didn't realise the 'Vespa' lights were on the Giro car too.
Re: What front end is this?
When I saw you mention Vespa - I laughed out loud , not imagining scooter lights on a Stratos but having seen the photo and realised you were probably right I thought what a strange and fascinating world the Stratos world is !! Who would have thought it ? - and what a fount of wisdom and strange facts and knowledge we have within our membership base !! Long-live SEC !

Others similar front ends where "lightned" quite strangly ( ugly !!! )
with fiat 126 headlight or even hudge Renault 12 headlights !!!!
Re: What front end is this?
yes I think the Aseptygol Le-Mans cars had fiat 126 lights. Tried these on Mine but dont fit so they must have a slightly different moulded cavity height. Lights would be for low drag for sure.
