I certainly appears someone has been caught making up a car with a story to match. Probably had no idea the POP would surface one day.

Be interesting to know if the current owner bought it to remove it from circulation and hide the truth. Good thing people have a pic of it saved for evidence.
Has anyone alerted Mecum to this development ?

This occurs more than you could ever imagine. It's all protected in the small print.
