'69 ELC parking lights different than Spt Cpe?
 
I've seen lots of photos of the front parking lights in '69 Chevelles and they are pretty narrow rectangles. The ones in my ElCamino are larger. Is that normal or might they be from a different year? I'll try to post a pic later.

thanks

Are you guys thinking about a 1970 ElCamino? They have round park lamp/turn signal lenses in the bumper. I am thinking the 69 ElCamino had rectangular lenses - larger than the coupes and sedans - in the same cutout area in the front bumper where the coupes &amp; sedans were.

The 69's have rectangular parking lights that are bigger than the Chevelle lights. The big round lights in the bumper was new for the 1970's.
