You've already mentioned yours have no pentastars, I'm asking @65 Dartman about his. I'm guessing, but I would think there would be pentastars on them? I've seen other emblems that have the pentastar.

Good Morning Guys! I very carefully look at the one in the first picture with a magnifying glass and could not find anything resembling a Pentastar. If you look at the very bottom above the part numbers there is some letters, i tried to take a pic of them through the magnifying glass. You’ll have to enlarge the pic to really see it but it shows a “1” and below that the letters “PMC”. I’ve no idea what it means - the designer of the emblen? - who knows!

Even the other numbers and letters are on the re-pop's just not as defined as the NOS ones, and Steve there is no Pentastar logo's on any of them even the old original Formula S emblems that I took off of my 68 do not have Pentastar logo's on them. Also I moved the NOS ones around in the bags to get a better look at the S and they are shiny and do look like chrome not brushed, it was just the old plastic that made them look that way. Look at 65 Dartman's 2nd picture and look at how defined the numbers are, the re-pop's are not as clear.

I took another look at the face of the emblem and the “S” is definitely chrome with the area around the perimeter where the “FORMULA” is definitely brushed.

Rick @ Layson’s told me that over time originals tend to start pitting whereas the repops (at least theirs) do not. I couldn’t see any signs of any pitting while in the bags but out of the bag, i could see extremely small pits in the “S”, especially undef the magnifying glass FWIW It would be interesting if 66 Cuda’s were the same way. I understand his reluctance to open the bag to find out.
