Re: [T3] hazard light problem

["Bill Niles" <beel@avicom.net>]

No E-flashers here. My '64 notch was originally purchased/sold in Belgium
but I don't know if that had anything to do with why it did or didn't get
flashers. I would assume it was a feature that you had to pay extra for.

Mine came without, e-flashers, backup light, seat belts, etc., etc.......

Just not a safety conscious world in 1964 I guess.
