I'm surprised this thread got so quiet.

I'm not. This is a real issue, and I can think of atleast one other green 69 sitting in a farmer's ditch with hidden VINs that wouldn't make a current owner too happy. But, I have discussed this with individuals here before....and no one wants to discuss this. Seems that this was a pretty common practice by some in the 80's. Is there a statute of limitations on these fraudulent acts?

I have also said before I went silent for 18 months that it is a shame that there are those out there who know about these cars and don't speak up. Everyone is quick to provide a list publicly of the VINs in certain cases....but no one wants to speak about the known VINs of cars that have "issues". I am not sure who is more fraudulent, those who produce/sell these rebodies or those who have info and don't make it known.

If I were to re-pop a x-ram manifold and sell them on eBay, people would be quick to point this activity out. Rebody a ZL-1 or Yenko....and depending on who you are, people may never hear of it.
