I had some dummy try to fail me for an inspection on my 69 swinger because he said none of my side marker light worked. I just laughed and told him to check the power supply. He ended up giving me one before i left.
I had something similiar happen with my Dart LOL!! I am wondering though how Mopar got away with that in 69.. All their cars in 69 had the reflectors instead of lights.. but if I am not mistaken illuminated marker lights were federally mandated for 68 and up... all the other car manufactuars had illuminated markers in 69.. except for Mopar.. Crazy... lol
