I would have sworn I had front marker
lights, but it looks like my memory is
way off here. Sorry for the mistake.
I thought all 68's sold in the US had to
have marker lights on all 4 corners.

Loren,
You have it right. The US market
Roadster did not get side marker lights
until the 1969 model year. The Japanese
domestic market Roadsters had front
teardrop markers as early as 1965.

Tom,
Now I am confused.
My '68 does not have side marker lights.
My belief was that '68
did not have side lights, '69 has round
rear and tear drop front
side lights, and '70 has rectangular
front and rear side lights.
To me having no side lights is a cleaner
look. However, I do like
the teardrops lights.
Did I miss something?
