Corvete

Before being bonded onto the car, the tail light panel has to be modified to accept the alarm switch/lock cylinder, the nylon nuts for the license plate bezel and license plate and the unique Corvette letters.

At some point, probably when this poor car was rear-ended in the 1970s, one of the T's was apparently lost. Instead of replacing the lost letter, the holes for the last E were filled and that E was placed in the holes for the last T spelling 'CORVETE.'

I wonder how many people noticed.
