I'm no tag expert but I think it could be either a factory tag with a mistake or it could have been a repro tag. I would keep it with the car and I wouldn't worry about it. You have the build sheet and it trumps a fender tag anyway.
If it was a fake tag I would expect to see a shaker hood, 4 speed, FM3 paint or some other high zoot option added to it, so it seems more probable it could be a factory mistake.

with a real broadcast sheet - the reproduction fender tag was made to complete the car

if the fender tag was "Dolled-up" then the authentic broadcast sheet would've been tossed

RH inner fender was replaced, what else?

I still don't see anybody having a reproduction fender tag made for a fairly plain mundane car that's NOT even restored to the tag, doesn't make a lot of sense. :dunno:

maybe it was sold as a project, with fender tag & broadcast sheet - maybe the next owner painted it red  :notsure:
