usually wherever the assembly line guy felt like slapping them on that day, they are mostly on the passenger side of the lid from all the originals I have seen and almost never on straight

The AIM shows where they are supposed to be placed but wasn't always the case.

There is variation on the location, but they are universally crooked! I believe the assy guy glued up the posi paper tag, leaned in from the side (I highly doubt they stood behind the car and eyed it up perfectly!), and slapped it on!

I have seen a couple of originals in pictures where the decal is actually slapped on some of the support bumps of the decklid.

Same guy who placed the factory decals must have placed the hot rod decals. &amp;#128522;

Here is how nasty they can be from the assembly line. Kansas survivor. I think the assembly worker was likely in a bad mood that particular day.
