    SOLD  Corvallis, Oregon: 68-74 Partial Windshield Assembly

    Taken from a rolled '79, this is an earlier model junkyard unit the PO used to replace the damaged original.

    70 Series Front Turn Signals on a 40

    Found some info searching but not definitive. Has anyone installed these 70 series front turn signal lamps from SOR on the side aprons of a 40? Is the space big enough without modifying/moving the hood latches? Pics are appreciated. My lamps are smashed along with the fenders, at this point...
