My initial thoughts on...

I have had success on show panels (maybe just lucky) installing the emblems, which may be harder than removing existing. It's a two person job, and preferably one of the two should have narrow...

A tough illustration to view, at least with my eyes. I'm taking a wild stab on this one.

Bill,
Are you sure it was the GTOAA and not POCI? I have never seen the GTOAA ask an owner for the removal of a wheel cover. Either way, looks like you got one tough judge. Something you said?!

I am not sure if this is what the amcguy said, but you might inquire and ask if the manufacturer would/could use your original cable and install the correct end on it. Might be pricey.

I used one of m 187 paint chips and compared to a 214. The match was dead-on. Evidently they did not change paint schemes between 1964 and 1965.
