Let's see.
Original V8 Belvedere built at the Evansville plant, therefor no data plate on the car.
Options:
Dual outside deluxe mirrors
Front valance and rims are the wrong color
V8 was an option too
Sport deck
Wrong interior
Heater
Original screws to hold the door panels
Engine painted wrong color, block must be silver and air cleaner + valve covers red
Just for the purist, car was originally bittersweet and lose those fender skirts
also exhausts are wrong

Wow! Ripped that one apart. But you are right if you are going for a Concours car there is a lot of errors but still looks like a decent runner for most. Price is a little high but there is always someone out there who would treasure it.
Should be a nice addition to someone's garage....

Matthew - I have a concern about the dual exhaust routing. I don't think mine is right, do you have pictures of the correct routing of pipes starting at the ex. manifold.

Dick, you can see the dual exhausts in the shop manual.
I noticed on this one that the pipes are going straight towards the rear after the rear axle. They should go up a little bit on the tips should bend down and they should not be seen
