White deluxe houndstooth with standard door panels?   No wood grain at all on the dash?  Looks like a hodgepodge of parts to me.

All the good looking work and you still get a horrible horrible fit to the deck lid and spoiler on the right side.   :'(

Black out tail panel isn't done correctly either.  All the original paint cars I've photographed has the blackout running up at an angle to the trunk weatherstrip gutter.   If you want to get picky, that black out actually runs under the weatherstrip as it was painted before that was installed.  They are also much more glossy than what those pictures depict.

At least they didn't put Z28 stripes on it  ;D

4-F is more appropriate.

I think you're right on the date thing Austin.  I don't believe that to be any real big secret that I'm aware of.
