I know it isn't the best photo, but can anyone give an opinion on if this is a restamp?

Is that by the oil filter mount?

I thought the same thing.  It is under the alternator.

From that photo it looks ok to me but would like to see a better photo of the whole pad.

Thank you.  I will see if I can get something better.  I was concerned about the number "1".

Great question Danny.  The car is not close enough for me to look at in person.  Trying to get some more photos.

Please don't pull any punches.  I wouldn't want to waste 6 figures on a fraud.

Need better pics. No excuse for crappy pics these days, everyone has a camera on their phone. What about the rest of the pad? And rest of the drivetrain?

For 6 figures, they can provide real pics.
It's a reasonable stamp, but I want to see a real pic of the whole pad, in focus.

Seller claims that the engine, transmission, and rear end have "matching numbers:"

For six-figures - I'd pass.

Thanks.  They are getting drivetrain stamping photos tomorrow.  I will post as soon as I get them.
