Someone should call his local police department. Couldn't they impound the paperwork for selling a "title" and tags to an unknown car.

Hey Smokey, why don't you call his local police department if his E-Bay ad causes you so much grief? And what makes you think that it's an unknown car? Maybe he's the titled owner and the car burned up somewhere. There's people on this site with re-bodied Yenkos with swapped tags that you and anyone else bored over these Winter months can &quot;report&quot; if you feel so inclined to be a hero.

Because it's a felony to sell a VIN tag that isn't attached to the car it originally came on, regardless of the reason. That's why you can't do it, and eBay and The Law have a problem with it. If the car burned up and the VIN tag is still attached to it, that's fine, but if it is sitting on a kitchen table like in the photo, it's illegal.

The above posting surprised the sh!+ out've me as aside from this I've always very much enjoyed, appreciated and agreed w/ this member's input here..
Does personally knowing anyone's car on this site may be a rebody w/ illegaly transfered tags make this practice somehow acceptable here now?.
Is this site's adage of <span style="font-style: italic"><span style="font-weight: bold">'Dedicated to the promotion and preservation of the Chevrolet dealer built Supercars and COPO cars' </span></span> still the case here or has something changed?.
