What Is Wrong With This Cowl Tag?
 
The cowl tag in this photo in the attached link is from a 67 Pace Car Camaro. Is it just me or does this tag not look correct? Seems to be stamped in instead of out. I need some thoughts on this as I have a client that wants the car but I am not comfortable with this for some reason.
Thanks,

Mo it's just your eyes...look at the shadows of the letters..it looks stamped right.That damn window pane stays with you a long time.

It looks ok compared to a lot of the tags in Jerry's book. For some reason it almost looks like it's a little flattened. But the information looks like it's all in the right place.

BelAir, how come you seem to know so much about Timothy Leary vintage drugs? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif

That thing is a frigin' optical illusion. I had to look at it 3-4 times before the letters looked raised to me.

The pic you attached looked to me like it was a Neg pic so I inverted the colors and now it looks like it should. I will say the wording thats on the tag prior to the stamping the cars info is pretty smooth though. Did I ever send you the 1st Gen VIN/Trim tag decoder at all that Daniel put together?
