What do you think of this for the position of Lucas indicators?
Welded up a 68-72 1200 fender to transform a european 67 to us look...
Some pics of the fender and the car it's coming on.

looks good to me -but i think the best way to tell if it's a good position is by fitting those fenders to a car and have a look at the whole front

On an early fender it usually goes in place of the horn grilles.

Nice 67 Jelle!

Take a look at other rides, i think they look perfect on the black bitch for example.

Or ask Kurt to do a little measuring  Wink

Look at the red dots, for the position of the indicators... I like them better on the left car...

nice line you drew, certainly makes sense!
but i'd personally never run them with bumpers (and i've never seen them with bumpers)

the ones on the left look good! but don't go a tad lower or it will look odd!

Does the old white greg aronson car have lots of positive camber, or is the picture fooling me?
