The Deuce gets the chrome emblems, no pins, double sided tape, and bec/ your car is a first order car would most likely get the insets painted the appropriate colors - but not the edges. The edges would be left chrome.

Does this mean the later cars got the white on the outer portion?

Yea, generally speaking, the 06B cars that were converted by Hurst have a higher probability of completely white emblems - but not the '69 style. They just painted them differently, as there are at least 3 different paint schemes for the '70 Deuce emblems.

Oh, ok...this i agree with. I thought you were claiming later cars to have the white pinned 69 emblems on them and i was gonna start a big argument.

I'd bet even most late cars still had the same paint scheme as the one pictured above, with a few oddballs mixed in.

Exactly, it's just a few oddballs - not that many, but enough to document the exception as they've been found on original paint/condition cars. It's not too much of a stretch either, as the Hurst converted cars have several peculiar things with them - they just did things different than Yenko's kids!

Cool topic though

Now if we could start a picture war on how the repro emblem pictured above is different than the originals.....

The main difference between repro and original is thickness. The repop casting was made from an original emblem. They must have allowed for more metal when poured. The paint is tester model car colors. My wife paints them as needed. She does nicer detail work than originals. The blue color changes depending on whats in stock at the hobby shop. They also come in black as a dealer emblem. Earl
