Interesting question re: 1969 model year Sprite/Midget front fenders.
.
I always thought the change lowering the park light/turn signal position on the front fender was made for the 1970 model year as part of BL's "restyling", along with the thinner bumpers, black rocker panels, new taillights, etc.
.
The 69 Sprite I bought has the old style bumpers but the NEW style front fenders. One other 69 owner I know has the same setup.
.
Since fenders are easily swapped between Spridgets, it could be a DPO swap. Can anyone else confirm if their '69 came this way, or with the older style fenders?????
.
Thanks,
Mike
