    I just skimmed through this and realized that it wasn't clear, Max and I live 4 hours apart. The plan was to get the car to the point it could be driven home. The car was largely together, interior was mostly in the car, dash, seats., so I did what I could to minimize the trips Max would need to...

    TRYING TO FIGURE OUT MY EMBLEM PROBLEM

    Ok, looking at the pictures of my car (left side) the third hole on the Barracuda is about 1/2" past the fish left hole, yours looks to be more than that. Your emblem looks correct (what is the part number on the script?), the holes do not. Alan
