    I have looked over the pics of this car and I think I see lots of issues. I wonder if you guys can pick at it and tell me what you see is wrong.
    I am only doing this to try to get my 67s as accurate as possible in it's final detailing. I just want to get it right. Thanks in advance.
    Regards

    They're asking the same price as the "original" 68S. High sixties! Supposedly matching numbers and took 4 years to restore.

    radio does not have green numbers on face plate
    no speaker perforations on dash
    brake calipers are gold anodized should be silver
    instruments don't have chrome bezels
    engine decals - too many for a 67
    carpet looks like perlon not velour
    interior color combo is questionable
    horn grills should be two holers not four
    rims aren't right should at least have hearts if going with something other than 4.5"'s

    Thanks for that. I think all these things were wrong. What about the wipers and the front bumper overriders? Are the switches correct above the radio? Is the radio correct? Arn't those dash instruments from a diff model? Is the rear wiper a correct fitment?

    The radio is obviously non original
    the knobs above the radio are incorrect
    the wipers should park left
    the bumper guars in front..I don't know. Mine is a Euro and has none
    When is yours going to be finished Scotty? Mine is getting sprayed this week

    Thanks for your valuable input. My car is on the road but have many details to get right. Pictures of a correct car would be a great help. I have a reference car here in the UK but just want to be sure.

    Shouldn't the instument faces be green? They wouln't need that goofy filter on the oil filler neck if the snorkel was turned over and the proper hose affixed! The car must have had A/C at one point, the snorkel looks modified. I love the colors and the options though. Personally I really like the contrasting interior color. Of course I'm biased, my car came with beige as well.
