Oversized lugged frames?

Devout Dirtbag
"Unfortunately" I have a fairly fixed idea of a retro bike project -- looking for an oversized lugged steel frame of reasonable quality tubing (say, Columbus EL-OS and the like). While there are a few EL frames floating around, the oversized (EL-OS, Genius etc) frames I see are usually welded.

Can you give me any hints what brands and models to look out for? Thanks in advance.
 
Not sure of the model but...
Early 90s Reparto Corse ELOS Bianchi...

There's also Reynolds 731 OS Race tubing if you want to extend your choice.

You might track down a Graham Weigh on Ebay, its something he often used :)

Finally ... Fratelli Columbus Genius lugged. No idea about the brand, but it ticks all the right boxes. Now, to paint or not to paint? Keep red with all black modern-ish kit, or paint yellow with green kit.
