Default Re: Question about a 69 Camaro on ebay

Derek,

Welcome to the site. You're doing the right thing by asking questions before you buy.

"It it an original SS 350, but long ago it had been converted into a drag racer and re-bodied. During the re-body, the original VIN tag was lost. The next owner wanted to use it on the street and had a new VIN tag placed on it (from a 6 cylinder car), and that is the VIN that it is currently titled and registered under here in Florida.
The current owner took out all the drag racing components and completely restored it to original specs (with some mild performance upgrades and a better color was originally green), but it still has the VIN from some 6 cylinder car.
If you look at the firewall tag (click on one of the thumbnails), however, you will see that it is an X11 (SS350) code car."

So they are attempting to legitimize putting an alleged SS Trim Tag on a 6 cyl body and calling it a true SS350 car?? I wouldn't touch this car with a ten foot pole
