interesting front indicator lenses.

They have been taped over. Being glass, and because they could potentially get broken or fall out, they had to be taped over. Note the headlights have clear protectors.

Hey Ian

Took some time but found one from the 1976 event. Very close to the one you are after except for 'Competing Car' and 'No:...' set out and the 'SEE OVER' is not on yours

Thats awesome. Just what I was after. Now just need to make one up. Any chance you could measure the size for me. Or photograph next to a ruler.

My bet is on wording that starts with "Motor racing is dangerous. etc. etc."

That's Just awesome. I'll be talking to my sticker man to see what we can come up with for a 1969 version. Thanks to all who had input.

Cheers
Ian
