I would love to see this happen to the guys that have made fake 435 hp vettes with their bogus tags and restamped motors. Of course they are all fully documented too.

Yeah... look at the things people get away with today and never serve jail time. 5th, 6th offense d.u.i., etc.
Nothing major will happen to him.

We too are on a crusade to bring all the cloners of LS6 Chevelles to the surface. I just recently finalized an LS6 convertible inspection where the customer paid damn good money for the car not too mention inspection fees just to find out it was a fake. Thanks to myself and Chris White he is getting his money back. If you are building clone LS6's for the sole purpose of cheating people, keep your head up. Last year more than half the LS6's I inspected were fake! Of that half, the new owner was requesting the inspection. Inspect BEFORE purchase!

I use a line when people ask me the number of 1970 Oldsmobile w-30 convt 4 speeds. Mine is one of the 300 remaining of 96 built. Fortunately mine has very heavy original paperwork and history but now there is re-stamped everything, fake broadcast sheets, window stickers etc. The olds guys need the same verification system. Lee
