'67 Corvette Coupe, #s 427/435hp, "True Surivor"

Looks like some funny stuff going on with the front end. I don't like the fit of the hood nor the alignment of the "427" numbers.

For reference here are examples of generally accepted number mis-alignment.

Bill,

I’m glad you showed this mis-alignment of the 427 and I’m assuming this is your Survivor as the reference.

The other day I was comparing this exact issue on other 67’s and found several others that were mis-aligned but I didn’t want to bring it up.

We are kind of splitting hairs, but both of the examples here are not perfectly true / level.
I don’t think the line workers spent much time with this adjustment.

Thanks, Chris
