My Redfire V6 Pics....

I'm sure they were mounted there because that's where the original GT badge is. And if what I'm hearing is correct the GT badge has 2 pins that go through the fender. He probably put the new badges over the existing holes.

I did try them up higher to begin with but they didn't look right. So I tried them lower..ala 67 location, and they seemed to look better there. The badges are from the 64 1/2 - 68 era, the fact that they don't have an engine size on them, i.e 289, tells you that its a V6. The badges had 4 pins on the back that I cut off and ground down. I then put 2 way automotive tape on the backs and stuck them on. I did not want to drill holes in the fenders :nono: This way I can take them off if I change my mind.
As for the cars in the background...The one under cover is a 64 T-Bird with a 390 in it :worship:. The other one with the pushed in front bumper is a 2 door, 62 Lincoln with a 462 in it.
Thanks for all the comments and please keep them coming!!

Understand why you went low, I think midway between the door handle and the lower edge of the "C" indentation (vertically) would have looked better, but all we have are eye-level photos, try posting one from a 4-year-old's height, that will probably straighten everyone out.

BTW...nice car!

I don't think there is enough room on the '05 fender for them. IMO It would look too cluttered. There was way more room on the 64 1/2-68 fenders between the wheel opening and the door.

I like the badges. Although since the car is supossed to be more retro I would go with the badages followed by the mustang letters. Like tgis on on a 64 1/2.

Actually, I'd move the emblem up slightly and then put the lettering below it. I think that'd look good.
