Front Turn Signal Lens Color?

Which year Amphicars used the orange front turn signal lens and which used the colorless lens?
Thanks,
Ted

Re: Front Turn Signal Lens Color?

Early cars were clear..61-4
later cars were Amber as well as European cars.
but no one will cut you up if you put amber on any car.

Re: Front Turn Signal Lens Color?

Yes sir I think Gord is correct. And '64 would be a good guess as to when they changed color.
There is one thing to understand.
You may see a '66 (for example) early production late titled car with clear turn signals, you will never see a '63 or earlier car with amber lens.
I think, Tommy in Sunny Tampa

Re: Front Turn Signal Lens Color?

Hi all, I just unloaded Amphicar # 106524132 so that makes it one of the very last cars Amphicar put together just as they were closing.
This car has only 469 miles and I do think it is all original. It is a blue car with a black top. It has CLEAR front turn signals.
I gotta go I will post pictures later after playtime is over.
