Hello again guys

Well the more I get into this rebuild of the 69 B the more things popup unexpectedly.

I now find that I'm in need of two front turn signal assemblies. I have two good sets of lens, so I don't need those, just the bases will do. The two I have are in such rough shape that I doubt a cleaning and paint is going to suffice.

So, if anyone has a set of the front turn signal assemblies they are wanting to sell, please let me know as soon as possible.

Thanks
Kevin

Post a WTB ad in the Buy,Sell, & Trade forum.

I was addicted to the hokey pokey but I turned myself around.

The problem with doing nothing is not knowing when you’re finished.

If your car is a California car this might not be a problem but mine were corroded and shorting out. The MGOC in the UK sells replacement ones with the correct Lucar connectors. I bought them- they seem fine. My only complaint is the sponge packing was too thick.
