Default Check out this Vin vs Cowl Tag

Someone tell me if I am wrong about this but Vin series 634XXX is in line with quite a few COPO's but this car has a Non X code 10C Vin tag.
Kurt this is not correct is it?
Ebay 69 Camaro

That VIN fits for a car built sometime in mid to late April, not Oct.

634xxx would be late April/early May build. Not all COPO cars were built with consecutive VINs. This was a small block car with a V8 that might have been built the same day as a COPO was, but the 10C in no way comes close to the VIN.
IMO, the trim tag did not come with this car.
However, a photo of the VIN would be helpful.
No way this was ever a COPO, and not represented as anything but a nice driver, which it looks like to me.

ive noticed that you should go by the cowl tag body #s rather than the vin #s when checking for a copo.

I'm thinking maybe it was a typing slip up, and maybe its supposed to read 534xxx. That would put it in that time frame. Plus I dont see why it would be swapped for the tag thats on it (non X, and color change). Doesnt look to have been swapped to me.

Tag doesn't line up with 9N534xxx either.
VIN or cowl tag is swapped.
