Something strange

[smhardesty]

I found this photo on some website a while back. I downloaded it to use as wallpaper on my laptop. I hadn't really noticed what I think is something a little strange until a couple of days ago. Once I saw it, it's the first thing I see when I look at the photo now. Look behind the front wheel at the Holley logo and the 327 CID. It's a different font and obviously NOT slanted in proportion to to the angle of the car in the photo. The other thing that makes me think there is something wrong is the class, itself. Think about the weight of those cars and a 327 engine. B/GAS just doesn't seem right for that weight/CID combination.

Does anybody else concur? Does the 327 CID look like it was Photoshopped in?

It looks photoshopped, but it's just the perspective showing that effect.  I found two other photos with the 327 cid lettering.  Either that, or someone has been busy!

Well, you're absolutely correct, Paul. I should have done a search for the car myself. Wasn't thinking, again. In the first photo you posted, the perspective looks correct. Then in the last one it doesn't look right at all. Optical illusion, I guess. Thanks for posting!

Check out the drilled lower control arm.

I have this image as my laptop wallpaper. I noticed the control arm too. The car appears to be a real masterpiece. Here is my desktop.
