Why is that people post stuff up but there is no follow up because no one responds

What is the front turn signal type for a 1970 Manx.

Thanks

They were kit cars, so you can use anything; early Ghia 'bullet' indicators and Lucas aftermarket ones were popular, as were Beetle units.

Re: TRUE BUGGY BUYING STORIES; tuff tub t-bucket knock off
