Bill,
A friend of mine went to view this car last week. He was interested in it, so he asked me to take a look. At first glance it appears nice, like a survivor quality car. The undercarriage is quite rough and scares a lot people off. The stamp pad has several unusual anomalies, first the engine assembly uses two different zeros, not typical for big block, the digit eight is upside down,there is bounce back on both Tonawanda stamping and St. Louis stamping, and on top of that the bounce affects digits that are flanked on both sides of a digit that does NOT have bounce back, and the last suffix letter which is an R is obliterated by that ?. The same bounce back situation also is with the VIN derivative, bounce on two digits flanked on either side by one that doesn't. Two stampings at two different plants at different times by different people have the same anomalies?
I've seen factory goofs but the chances of this many on one stamping? The other problem is their is no factory paperwork to prove this option on the car, unfortunately. Even if substantiated as all real by the factory, you would have a darn difficult time convincing most collectors of this, especially when prices go back up to what they were early last year.
