Inspecting a loose example

Check the dark red and white side flames and red valve covers. The exposed engine makes plating differences easy to spot.

Check the hood, doors, fender edges, exposed engine, wheels, and underside in direct light. Record paint chips and tampo wear separately from factory details; on releases identified by a base or engine change, include a clear underside or engine view.
