Don't you think it's pretty easy now to cut out the Firewall VIN & cut that piece into another firewall?

With all the welding techniques available now, I think anything is possible and some un detectable.

I had 2 real 69 RA III TAs, both ROUGH!! The 4spd was restorable, but back in 1995, they did not bring that much, & cost of resto far out weighed value. I found an 100% all orig. 69 RAIV TA, alot of orig. paint. I got it, & parted both 69s. The car is now done to concours level, so much esaier , when you start w/super clean western car.

Whith the value of muscle cars today.
Nobody will devalue a car they're selling by telling you it's been tagged

Rob, they prob. would not. But I'm sure legal authorites would love to talk w/them. Don't get be wrong it's ashame to let any rare car get turned into a tuna can, but it's not right to switch tags & pawn off a car to someone who does not know.

I agree with that, except the tagging is convieniently forgotten after the first sale.
