1965 Valance Body Work Question

[Stephen B.]

Is this work around the tailpipe factory work or shade tree cobbling? The car has been repainted once. Thanks...

Stephen,

Did you check for some of the telltale signs of N14 side exhaust? It seem like I remember your car being a fuelie. If it's a Smith body...then never mind.

The back side looks real to me. That is the way the bezel brackets were attached.

I agree. That's what made me question the front.

It also looks like shade tree to me, but the back looks factory.

I took this off a bone yard car in the 70's. It looks un-touched.
