I know that the back bumper is wrong for the year, but something else just doesn't feel right about this car...

Just a few things I noticed:

Headlight rims are painted body color

Front bumper/spoiler is from an "S" (or fiberglass copy)

Rear bumper "update kit" which is a crappy plastic insert between bumper ends to mount a newer center reflector

Deco strips missing from front bumper and left rear bumper

Wheels incorrect for a 1970T (these came out in 1973)

Weber carbs incorrect. Car came with Zeniths I think.

BEsdies what was noted above, please add:

The left and right rear bumper ends do not match.

What happened to the Targa Bar?

Where are the Door Pockets?

I had a friend look at this car for me (I saw this and was thinking about it). He described it as a "handful". All the discrepancies I saw were mentioned above...
