What do you mean by "wrong"??? There is no "wrong" on these cars. Very few backdates are in an attempt to clone of copy something specifically. Most are simply hot rods or drivable tributes to the cars they love. Once you start worrying about it being EXACTLY like something its not, or worse, try to fool somebody....then it's just a fake.
