Something pear shaped here...

[GJS]

For those whom haven’t figured this out, my very first love in the C Body world is the 67/68 Monaco’s and Polaras. That being said, the related accessory haul this holiday season was overwhelming and appreciated.

Only thing is, I was looking in the mirror while wearing my Monaco hoodie and noticed an issue. (the same rendering is on my coffee mug and a long sleeve t-shirt I got, I’m worse than a dad.)

One guess what the issue is...
(I only ask because my wife thinks I’m too obsessive.)

The DODGE lettering above the car is sagging?

Nope, that’s just how it’s sitting on the washer.

Are YOU pear shaped??

 

[traintech55]

You have been a member long enough to know we do not accept pictures taken on a washing machine. Have your wife put the T shirt on, and then post a picture.

That goes without saying, bro.

Camera shy lady, what can I say?

 

[MarPar]

Is it the wiper that's not parked all the way??

Pears left aside, driver side rear view mirror is missing and the hood ``spear`` ends too far back. The latter should touch the central D. Also it has no bumper guards, so I assume it´s a low-option car.

 

[commando1]

I don't see it.

... unless you're taking about the bumperettes.

 

[jct]

Are you saying, we need more pictures of your wife and or girl friend‽

Not the bumperettes but the bumper itself. It’s a 68 bumper. ... or it’s a 67 grill.... and it’s been bothering me since I got it.

 

[ImpJay]

Here´s a 68:

On the shirt you have definitely a 67 by the grille. What´s the difference of the bumpers of these two years?

The air holes on either side of he license plates.

Here's a another shot of the '68 bumper.

 

[LocuMob]

Yep, I see it now.

'67 Polara

And '67 Monaco

That's gonna haunt you for life!

Well, I figured there might be an issue with the headlights being too far from each other when the garment was "installed".

As for the minor things you're allegedly obsessing over, UNLESS the image is Licensed from Chrysler for use, it has to have something that's not accurate about it. That whole dang vehicle is trademarked by the manufacturer to start with, so any accurate images used for commerce would need Chrysler/FCA approval and license lest litigation be on the horizon. But, as with the off-shore sheet metal, "differences" make it a not-exact-copy of the OEM image.

Notice that the "DODGE" on the hood has the same sag and the "DODGE" lettering above it. Wiper parked angle is normal, as I recall, on the rh side. Grille texture and emblems are missing, too.

CAR and somebody wearing that hoodie in one picture?

Those are both rectangular features, I was looking for "something pear shaped". Is that an old saying or something? Also I agree with your wife, that's a tad obsessive, you're the only one who'll notice and if anyone else does, you'll know you're in good company.

I’ve had two T-shirt’s that were done by another company that were correct in this respect.... you’re right though, that company is no longer making the shirts and the licensing may well be why.
