Default Re: Buying/Selling Firewall Tags......

Exactly Pantera. That is how the guy got popped. He did not have a tag on the car so the officer asked hime for registation info. The officer also asked him to pop the hood.(we had located the car and informed the police that we suspected it to be stolen) He checked the vin plate in the engine compartment, it didn't match the winshield one and Boom guy goes to the slammer. Turns out he had been buying Corvettes, shipping them out of the country then keeping a record of the Vin#'s. Stealing Corvettes then using the Vin's of the cars exported. Thus there was no overlap in the registrations.
