Default VIN tag problem?

https://www.ebay.com/itm/256721859880

Stated VIN 124379N563499

“This 1969 Camaro Convertible has undergone a meticulous restoration..."

Not a convertible VIN

Thanks for the heads up but at this point could just be a typo?

Exactly what I was thinking, given that there is no pic of the vin tag.

But, if it isn't a typo, that is one big matza ball hanging out there.
What a can of worms that could be. Can you imagine purchasing this car, then having it confiscated by law enforcement? Don't think it can't happen.

Was thinking the same thing. Those silver stripes don't help.

I sent the seller a message via Ebay to alert him to the VIN situation. I'll let you know if he responds.

I messaged him early this morning about it, without telling him exactly what the problem was, only that he might want to double check the VIN. Well, now he has amended the wording in the auction, and I think he's got a real problem
