Did Luby do any goofy up-badging?

I have a basic 1982 305 SC sold at a Luby’s that has what appears to me to be goofy paint and upbadging. I am going to start cutting into it for racing and was just curious.

I know that this kind of thing doesn’t make it valuable, but I was curious anyways. I have a low mile 1992 B4C already, one of two Denver PD undercover traffic patrol cars that I love.

I just want to make sure before I go to town on this sport coupe.

adding pics for hilarious times

Not factory.
Just a dealer or customer added detail.

That is clearly a poorly done up-badging.

Looks like a First Gen emblem.
