Title: What's wrong with this picture
Post by: mopar346 on August 29, 2012, 11:11:07 AM: 69 Z/28 I ran across looking at the 63 paint code car. What do you think the deal is, I see something curious.

There is possibly an explanation for the item out of place but it would be for a specific reason. Not being mysterious just want to see what others come up with and what I might have missed. It's all a learning process.

Trim tag looks original though or replaced decades ago. Thats all I got.

Apparently, the car has drum brakes too.

The car sounds not only eat up but completely suspect.

Post by: mopar346 on August 31, 2012, 02:14:26 AM: The car has a tach and a clock, indicating that it had console gauges, I do not see the hole in the firewall for the oil pressure line. Am I looking in the wrong place? It does appear to have the muncie hole.
