Yes...all the 69 4 spd cars had smog.

Exterior; headlite bezels are incorrect, there should be black paint between the rocker moldings, also missing the pinstripe that goes with that trim package, no trim rings on SS wheels, looks like chrome edge is absent from fender louvers...not sure why they left all the pieces of labels on the tires ???

Interior; door panels are re-pop [no Nova emblem], Muncie shifter should have a black knob, not sure what's up with the spare...looks like a used radial on steel wheel not in the right position.

Engine bay; The radiator support rubber flap has 70 style buttons...should be the T-clip version, negative cable mounts to the engine, hood hinges are incorrectly painted black, dip stick should not be painted, lots of little hardware issues.

underside; the completely painted bottom is not correct, orange oil filter???, and the list goes on.

Could be a nice car with some major cleanup of the problems seen and others we haven't noticed yet.
