There is nothing wrong with the tag on the car. VIN matches build date.

There are however some small items that are wrong. Alternator, water pump (could be a mistype), fan shroud, master cylinder, wrong shifter and knob, radio is wrong, should have slide on top for AM/FM selection, no rear bumper guards. Since there is no numbers for the carb and because the way the PCV hose is routed I would say it's not correct. Bunch of little incorrect items but the car looks good.
Missing smog would be expensive to correct. Wrong exhaust (but how many really have the correct exhaust).

You could pick on it for all the small stuff but the car is nice. It even has the correct and they look like the original fenders.
