Default Re: New trim tags on Ebay

Jim is correct. The laws do not punish the guys selling these things (VINs yes - other items, no).
It's as though our entire hobby needs to have an "Ethics Board" that could influence lawmakers.
I wish I could be of more help to guys on this site (or wherever) who own later '60s cars, but all my information pertains to '58-'64 "muscle barges". Honest people in this hobby need HELP from someone who has taken the time to compile the necessary information to either sanction the validity of a car of issue a warning. Who ever would have thought that the authenticity of these cars which we love from our memories would be so valuable today, and so difficult to document as "real"???? The values and desirability of these cars have spawned an underground level of profiteers who are willing to provide the very items we all look for to authenticate the legitimacy of these cars.
Well,I could go on and on about my feelings about this subject. Enough for now.

Verne
