Butt end too high on a restored car with stock wheels, or the entire car having a 4WD look.

1967/1968 Shelby GT Mustangs with the wrong rear valance and tips. Those are 1967 first design tips with a second design rear valance. Midyear during 1967 production Ford changed from the single round tip and associated rear valance to the quad tips used on the Mustang GT in an effort to save money. Then all 1968 Shelby GT Mustangs used the second design.



This is the first design tips and rear valance



This is the second design tips and rear valance

Why can't restorers place the engine callout emblems in the correct place on 1968 Camaro Super Sports?

I thought this might be a short thread, but the more I think about it, the more I'm getting worked up about my pet peeves...

#1 Z28 hood and deck stripes on a first generation Camaro SS, or a 1968 or 69 Chevelle!
#2 a spoiler on the deck of a rear antenna first generation Camaro
#3 stripes with the wrong dimensions... especially a front nose stripe on a 1967-68 Camaro
#4 big clown-shoe wheels on an otherwise correct looking vintage musclecar.
#5 Z/28 and SS emblems on the same car... really?

Guys who beautifully over restore a car and then are no place to be found when the guys who built the car at the factory actually show up to look at the restoration in person.

1968/1969 Z/28 with 1967 center caps. I know some of you like this look. I don't.
