I don't know if we've ever come across a bulletin on placement. My hood is the closer of the 2 up on the rods. Hope this helps.

Too funny
But someone had two EVEN part numbered NOS SIX PACK decals and if put them on the hood scoop on the right side where "most" EVEN part numbered parts usually go (i.e., running Road Runner door decals '68, '69) then they lean toward the rear or winshield............ A factory document for the SIX PACK decals list the EVEN part number as the right side BTW

Must be another pic floating around some where, mine I think mine are odd numbered. lol I'll now resume my regularly scheduled porch sitting. On an all but perfect summer evening.

Mark, are those NOS? Seems they are with the boxes reading 6-71 and they are ODD part numbers that would be "A$$-U-ME"D to be for the left side of the hood scoop on an A12 Bee........you kind of see what I'm getting to eh? If they were left side hood scoop decals which way did the design department intend them to lean but which way did most of the installers think they looked better and which way do most of us think they look better (me included)
According to the part numbers and to the factory document that I've seen they are "supposed" to lean toward the windshield but they just don't look as good as they do when leaning forward IMO Thank goodness the installers in '69 had a better eye for that than the design department too

While not quite the mileage as a painted fender tag question , without an nos decal and part number for the other side and/or documentation, we can only guess at the odd/even forward/backwards placement. Too many road test pictures going both ways to be definitive. That's why I chose the least debatable position.
