<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: kwhizz</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Not that I would know anything about this.....But....In the old days (Mid 60's).....If the Police thought you had a engine in your car that was restamped with new #'s......they would heat up the number pad with a torch and then apply acid of some type......if the pad were messed with....the old stampings #'s would somewhat come thru.........Just Say'in..... </div></div>

Thats the process Im talking about..im sure the police use it on guns that have numbers tampered with too...I also saw a vette for sale a few years ago(maybe a 67 L89 or L88?) that had this process done to the block and the frame if I recall..?? to prove it was never restamped..?
