Where exactly is that documentation? As far as I know, the only issue ever documented is that the wrong body stamp is definitely on the cowl (I haven't removed the fender and heater box yet). It is also verifiable that the vin stamp on the cowl belongs to a car the was totaled from the rear by a logging truck in 1981 (sworn statement from owner). Who rebodies a car onto a totaled body? </div></div>

Why not quote my whole statement &quot;I would suggest that rather than attempting to legitimize the car, research the history, and obtain affidavits from those responsible for the &quot;cowl only scenario&quot; as you suggest. Possibly they have picture of the whole process. I would then present those facts if available and start the discussion from there. I think we are beating a dead horse at this point, unless new information is obtained&quot;.

If it were me I would have ripped the fender off, verified the VIN before I bought it. Its quite simple and it would put this issue to bed. Lets get it done and good luck.
