I am sure you are 100% correct in yours and your fathers recollection of what was(or wasn't), on the car when new. Just disregard all of the pinheads that think ALL of these cars HAD to be produced to the letter of the standard. They have NO clue. Often the case, especially in the early days, there were omissions, errors and other such quirks that make the point that there were no absolutes.

Hey, name calling insn't called for here, I was not being derogatory in the least, I was simply asking questions because there were some things that were out of the norm, I didn't use the word "Never" or "Always" did I?

The way I read it he said that his father removed the emblems when it was new, then later read that they were'nt removed until 1972 when he bought it back. Since the emblems were not shown in the pics of the car when it was new something didn't add up.



Sorry that you took offense as my comments weren't directed at you or anyone in particular. It just seems as no one accepts anyones word on anything and cast doubt upon anything that isn't the "written word". Even when you show them indisputable proof- they try to poke holes in it. These same people will argue that the sky isn't blue it's more of an "azure" color.

I agree with the previous post. It's a great story and it's not necessary to muddy it up at this point. Carry on.....
