Title: Caveat Emptor...another repro tag
Post by: william on December 08, 2018, 03:04:21 PM

https://www.ebay.com/itm/1969-Chevrolet-Camaro-RS-Z28/173680473800?hash=item287029b6c8:g:goIAAOSwnWpcCqXQ:rk:8:pf:0&vxp=mtr

124379N666745

From the ad:

"ALL NUMBERS ARE CORRECT, IT HAS THE ORIGINAL DZ 302 THAT WAS REBUILT AT THE TIME ,ALSO THE ORIGINAL M21 MUNCIE THAT WAS REBUILT , AS WAS THE REAR END..."

That VIN was final-assembled on or about July 8, 1969

Claimed engine date is February 6; 152 days prior. Trans is dated Dec 27, 1968 [not 69 as stated]; 193 days prior. Axle date is close but may not be OE to this car.

Body tag has errors; 07C would be the third week of July. Norwood was shut down July 14-Aug 11.

Not its 1st rodeo:

William, Does it look like to you that The VIN tag has been off this car?

The dash top has been replaced with a repro.
