It's been over 20 years since we took this car apart so some things got scattered about...  According to  my OER (Classic Ind) catalog the hood emblem in top of the photo is correct for 1968-72 Mopar hoods, yet I am pretty sure the emblem on the bottom is what came off the car; it was "glued" on to the L/F part of the hood.  Unless I am blind, I see no emblems in the catalog like the small one so maybe I am wrong; it just looks awful large.  The catalog does not give dimensions so maybe it's mis-boxed?

Which one is right?  Or maybe neither?

Sorry about that.  1972 Plymouth 'Cuda.  And, the hood has three holes for locating pins.

@6bblgt thanks for locating that information.  Wow, proud of those little buggers!  The one that was glued on appears to have had the pins at one time.
Much appreciated.
