Best to find someone wrecking one as it will be a bit of a needle in a hay stack, 68 and 69 are the only years that used that style, pre 67 are different.

And if you want to be 100% correct 68 the strips were chrome and 69 were only silver.

you sure its a 1300? all 69s here were 1500, only Europe got the 1300 in 69.

I have a pr of alloy ( silver ) ones off my 68. They are in excellent condition and have the 4 clips to hold them on. What are they worth to you 🙂
