Default Re: 1970 L78 Nova paperwork for sale on ebay

I remember when that stuff was on Ebay a couple of auctions/owners ago. I find it hard to believe that nobody during this time hasn't run that VIN via somebody to see if it was currently registered. That probably explains the reason those doc's have been bought and sold a couple of times. My .02

The seller said in the auction that the VIN would only be available to the buyer, thence the VIN being unreadable on the auction. Its sad that this paperwork did not stay with the car when the original owner sold it. If you wanted to keep these items as mementos make copies. Makes me wonder how many original cars were separated from this type of documentation in this manner.

problem is that a lot of times the paperwork gets stashed somewhere outside of the car and forgotten about, car is sold, and years later the paperwork is found in the house somewhere during a clean out or whatever. I doubt heavily that car is still around, as said earlier, somebody MUST have ran the VIN somewhere along the line. A valid/current regsitration would definitely show up on any cop's cruiser computer
