Hi

will the rear wings off a 1969 2 door fit a 1959 4 door OK?

thanks

They will fit fine. The only small difference is the holes for fitting the rear light. The later wings are made to fit the larger, later light. If your 1959 car still has the original smaller rear lights, the holes in the later wings are in the wrong place (if you're fussed about such detail).
The early rear light will fit perfectly well, but will be higher up the wing than originally. That is why you sometimes see earlier cars (like mine :oops: ) with one rear light higher than the other.
