SS grill on the front, SS decal on the back. Torana Badge on the LHS of the hatch and engine size badge on the RHS of the hatch. NO TORANA decal on the front.

all the correct badges and things are in place, but you probably need something closer up right?

Thanks Red that gives me the general idea
I need to find one of those rear badges somewhere

Now my next issue is do I get a custom engine size badge made...... and if so do I duplicate the 3300 badge and make it 6300 or do I make a copy of the V8 version that says 6.3 ?

Go the 6.3, that is more in line with the 4.2 and 5.0 that is used.

Will be subtle and only picked by those that are looking.
