You should have a four blade metal fan in your 69 Sprite, mine does. I
have been told that the later plastic ones with 8? blades will fit and
work better, but I don't know. Someone with more experience should be
able to help you on this.
Just a side question, does your 69 Sprite have reflectors mounted on the
fenders and quarters? Toby and mine do, but I have heard from others who
do not, so I am just curious to the rhyme or reasoning of them. The M*^*
catalogue lists them as 70 Midget pieces, but mine is definately a
69,(thanks Bruce)
