Re: 1969 Trans Am
I can't imagine a car(s) of this magnitude and exposure having VIN's swapped? I guess it's all in who's buying the car.

Unfortunately, way too common.

Re: 1969 Trans Am
So the options are...
1, rebody, swap vins/cowl tags.....illegal 2. replace virtually every panel, save for the firewall and possibly that too. 3. part it 4. display the car as is.....this never happens but really the market would bare a car of this rarity being preserved in it's present condition, in a museum or private collection. I vote for 4, some would laugh at the car on display, some would just shy away. The serious car guys would be all over that because it holds so many truths to a car you never see in unrestored condition. The hang-up would never be able to enjoy the car for what it was intended....not much different than so many show cars.
