I have been contacted by multiple different people recently about someone trying to peddle a 65 Chevelle convertible as "the" Z16 convertible.

Pics of the VIN tag and trim tag confirm that, not only is the car a fake, but both the tags are fake too. The trim tag actually is (from a "looks" and general format standpoint) a very good fake. Both tags are even aged with dents and light sandblasting to make them look old and tired! But fortunately there are enough glaring mistakes in the data stamped on on the TT that it cannot possibly be real.

The fake trim tag shows yellow car, black top, black guts.

The VIN (on the fake VIN tag at least, who knows what the real VIN of the car is) shows as

138675K144270

So, if you or anyone you know is approached about buying this car, RUN AWAY !!
