Probably one of most horrendous re stamps I've seen in a long time, but interesting paper.?

There is nothing wrong with that stamp.. The numbers do match now... LOL LOL

I'm curious to hear other opinions on the stamp.

The VIN is stamped… not 100% convinced the JH is though.

the TO213J are probably original, but the last letter removed and a H added.

Agree, H looks added to me

The block stamp is not correct for that Nova.....the protect-o-plate is T0403JH for a 04B build date. The block in the ad is T0213J.....H......and as stated above, the H has been added. Plus, the VIN is definitely a restamp.....the font for the "W" is wrong.

Good catch, Kurt!

So everyone trusts the POP? Something is obviously amiss. The block is wrong or the POP is wrong, or both. What does a Willow Run partial VIN look like in that time period? I’m not interested in the car. I also agree that the pad is unusual and has been hit with a die grinder scotchbrite. The later stamped H is certainly not typical but I’d like to hear more opinions as the fonts on the assembly stamp look good to me.

This is a T0204JH block that I had for sale some time ago......for comparison.
