I don't mind a reproduction tag as long as it is not being used to sell a car for what it isn't.  I would like to have the tag because it "looks" right, even if it is not original.  However, if the repros are so bad they look worse than not having one then sort of defeats the purpose, no?

No, it does not defeat the purpose.  You have the build sheet, you should put a correct reproduction fender tag on the car.

I am missing the fender tag for my Barracuda but have the broadcast sheet, if it wasn`t just a lowly `72 318 car I would probably have one made for it.

It's not "just a lowly" 72.  It's an awesome car!   My opinion is that it should have the reproduction fender tag.  That totally completes the engine bay when the hood is opened.

Stand back at a car show...and count the number of people that look at your fender tag....most even look at it first before checking out the car.... :unbelievable:

I think it's a great addition to any car....I even had some made for my resto-mod.....watch the first few minutes of this video and you'll see a guy walk up, check out the tag, then walk away  (1:44 mark)...  :haha: :haha:

I agree cars look wrong with nothing there but a correct one isn`t cheap and when cuda money is limited I have more important things to spend hat kind of money on - maybe someday.
