Default Re: Who repro's the 70 GM Conforming door jam decal?

Since it's a reproduced 'Vin-ed' item, I'd look at using one of these as similar to restamping a motor or trans. . In either case, the door w/ Vin or drivetrain part w/ Vin can be swapped while inadvertently moving the Vins. . Of course applying a repop decal is much easier to attempt and you can try and try again if you're unhappy with the result unlike if your retamp goes bad, but easier doesn't make things any better or more honest? . If they were aware, any 'Re-Vin-ed' item would have different opinions depending on what local or Federal agencies and their agents feel at the moment. . Also like I've said before, reproducing Vins of any kind could subject your vehicle to possible destruction of any tags by the feds and a State reissued Vin thus greatly diminishing the value of the vehicle. . So like restamping, do whatever you feel comfortable with but allow this to be open knowledge come sale time to the serious buyer or certifying the car as "thorougbread' or other similar type status. . And again, if selling the vehicle, don't just tell the buyer this info, put it in writing so when the car is resold, you have proof you were above board and it's easy to see who dropped the ball of honesty. . As always, personal opinions here and subject to change without notice, any similarity to persons living or dead is purely coincidental, call with charge card in hand, operators are standing by. ~ Pete
