Default Re: russo & steele

I had mentioned the dash dilemma in another thread somewhere. The problem with E-body Mopars (cudas and challengers) is that their VIN plates were rosette rivited directly to the very removeable dash pad. Since the dash pads on these cars were so prone to cracking around the center speaker grill, everyone replaced the dash pad eventually over the years. The problem comes when somebody who does not know the proper way to remove and reinstall the tag, pries it off. This leaves a very visible evidentiary mark for all to see when looking through the windshield at the VIN. From the photo it looked like that was the case, but without seeing the car in person (which I would be happy to do for someone) and verifying the confidential VIN locations and paperwork, there is no way for a knowledgable buyer to determine the situation.
