Okay.... I stand corrected! My push button nor my 74 ever had them and I have never seen them on another car. Do you think perhaps these were a dealer applied trim piece like the rear view mirrors?. So THAT'S where all those cast emblems came from!MarshallSent from my Verizon, Samsung Galaxy smartphone

   Okay.... I stand corrected! My push button nor my 74 ever had them and
   I have never seen them on another car. Do you think perhaps these were
   a dealer applied trim piece like the rear view mirrors?.

   So THAT'S where all those cast emblems came from!

   Hey Marshall,

   They were definitely were attached to the car that Road & Track
   Magazine tested in 1971...and I believe they ARE original. Maybe not
   for the last ('73-'74) cars (they figured out by then it was
   pointless...

   My Longchamp had them as well.

   that would make me think that this is a reliable, long-term solution.
   But it struck me that you said that you are trying to return that car
   to original appearance, and then ask about doing something that is most
   certainly not original? Of course the later, cast logo thing is
   something different...
