New to the forum. Does anyone have specs on original factory placement of reflectors and 302 emblem on side of 71 bronco?
Finishing up my first restoration. All that's left is this and hard to get an exact sense of whether two reflectors are lined up horizontally or 302 emblem lines up with Bronco emblem. Or both. Thanks for any help!

Thanks Andy,
I've tried pulling up old ads and brochures. If you look at restorations they are kind of all over the place. Some have front reflectors some. Some don't. Those with sport logo don't have 302. It does seem like bronco emblem and 302 should be in line. Appreciate the help.

Sport or Standard is not a factor, the years are...
1969 - Reflectors, 302 Emblem
1970 - Marker Light, 302 Emblem
1971 - Marker Light, 302 Emblem
1972 - Marker Light

Like House said, Sport or base wasn't a factor.

Many of the so called "pro builders" don't care about making them correct, so whenever they buy new fenders they don't bother putting the markers/reflectors/emblems back on. Just paint, polish, profit.

Here is placement of my marker light and emblem on my '71 back in '77. Can't confirm it's correct though.
