[T3] Fender Exchange

[Dave Hall]

I'd say the small wrap-round.

The return to bullets for '69 was an example of stupidity enforced by US
government safety regulation.

The rest of the world stayed with the small wrap-rounds until the big lights
and massive bumpers of the '70-on, also a result of the US regulations!  I
believe 'they' thought it would kill the small imports, but you can't keep a
good thing down! 

Still, with half the annual production going to the USA, it wasn't something
VW could ignore.

WHICH early turn signals? The bullets or the little stripes?

As opposed to the big stripes of '70-on.
