Might come down to that--It would seem to make sense about the larger emblems being first and cut--But The emblems I picked up back then were the smaller size and I always remembered it as very late '69 or early '70 after I picked up the car in the summer of '69
The polished valve covers were picked up later, late'70 or '71--------Gonna have to get Joel to play King Solomon--AT least we'll know the answer to emblems/valvecovers and if I should start lookin for a nursing home :--Either way I could use the rest
