Also, the red on the back part is just a “strip” behind the black section. In the original photos, there’s a whole lot more red behind the black sections. This is clearly a PHONY explanation.

Sorry, but those placards do NOT match the photo. In the original photo, the red color extends FORWARD of the driver-side side -view mirror and the mirror housing is red. Inthe “placards” photo, the side-view mirror is part of the Colt and is white, and the red color does NOT extend forward of the mirror. Nice try!
