I guess it is silly but this was a real problem for my obsessive compulsive little mind. I did not feel right with 427 emblems when the car was only a 351 and the "Powered by Ford" badges were not correct for the car. Anyway, I chose to just go with the "Powered by Ford" plaques because they were essentially "honest". The car looked much better to me with them on than without them and once they were on I quit thinking about what they said and just enjoyed the improved appearance. The fenders just have more life with the emblems on. No one has ever mentioned them for the engine size or body correctness.

But the bottom line is--It's your car do what you like. Just enjoy it.

Rick
