whats a hemi vin tag worth, we will find out

[crj1968]

He states that both hidden VINS are readable and match the dash and title. So looks to be legit Hemi car.

It will undergo a restoration similar to the Stephens Daytona I recon.

[68pplcharger]

He did know the correct location, but won't let you see them to match body and title.

He states in the ad that people are welcome to inspect before bidding. I assume anyone serious about buying this pile would check it out first tomake sure the dicks are all aligned.

On flip side I probably wouldn't want to give out the vin either as all kinds of scammers out there that could repop a vin considering its current state.

[Alaskan_TA]

scammers out there that could repop a vin

Could or did? It looks decades newer than any other part of the car to me.

I thought the same. That is why i said if anyone was serious about buying this pile you'd want to inspect it first.

[cbrestorations]

im sure the vin to this car is already on another car and he had a repop made...thats why he doesnt wanna give out the whole vin probably

Possibility that the dash pad/VIN was blown out or missing? either way this will most likely become a rebody (nothing wrong with that IMHO), and the seller is probably withholding the full VIN so it's not "black listed" as a possible rebody by those over zealous self annointed registry do-gooders trying to fight grease and grime in the hobby

If he has a matching title and a VIN, the RMV/DMV that issued it, then says it good to go, if the body numbers match, then it will become another "numbers matching" HEMI car "saved", I'm sure the "numbers matching" driveline will be "found" shortly after the car undergoes resurrection...uhh restoration

sold  $38,314

38 + 100 = 250

38 + 100 = 138

Could be...wonder if it will show up in a year or two.   

[68pplcharger]

38 + 100 = 138

Fixed.

Lol I think the equation was right the first time. 38K for the car, 100k getting all the parts and forgeries that say it's all matching numbers one owner car (with restoration). Then he will get 250k at Barrett Jackson.  

[hemi-hampton]

That depends if they actually fix that one or just find a mint 318 car to switch the #'s to? LEON.

[Mike DC]

   
Why stop at a mint 318 car?  They could buy a 318 car that has already been made into a Hemi clone.  That makes the changeover even easier. 



Ugh.  The numbers matching hobby is so hopelessly awash in fraud.

Seems like rebodying has taken a back seat to restamping drivetrains as of late. Case in point the f9 hemi 69 charger thread.

Im glad ive never been a #'s match kinda guy.

Buying a mint restored 440 Cuda would make the switch even easier?

yes think it would  , they  already had  factory installed torque boxes ,   so upon close inspection your going  to see  factory style , sloppy crappy welds ) , ( well all the 440 cudas ive seen  from memory  )   although i'm not  up on e bodies , so I await to be corrected

It does seem so.   The cool part of having a -real deal- from the past has become a mine field of -maybe- cars. 

The fraud side of the hobby is (maybe) making nickles. And by doing so are causing stress and reduced interest for those that are enjoying history and life.
