I have seen them on ebay in the past. They actually started using these around August of 69. They changed the door design on the 69 Camaros to accept the sticker.

There is a Pontiac guy, Don who does them to order. He has the best one by far. I just had one made for my 72 TA. Check out this link: http://216.178.81.108/forums/showthread....r%23post2292472
Don used to sell them on ebay but they wouldn't let him sell them with the VINs on them. Totally ridiculous move by ebay since they allow everybody else to sell trim tags all day long, but a legitimate restoration product...no way! His email is [email protected] |

In a way, isn't this similar to fake cowl tags? Lengthy discussion to follow.

This is a decal with the VIN on it that was used to indicate conformance with emission and safety laws. It has no trim information and cannot be used to register a car with. Mopars have them since 1970 and they are reproduced as well. No real discussion needed. |

How is this tag different from a factory hidden VIN stamping or another factory tag with VIN or trim information? This tag has a VIN and is original to the car. If it is missing, replaced, or tampered with, then the car is probably a rebody. Anyone replacing this tag may be in violation of federal law for tampering with a VIN. Per previous discussions on this board, if you tamper with a VIN, then the car is bogus. This sticker obviously has a VIN.
Seems that people choose what is best dependent upon their specific situation and then ridicule others for offering tags for sale or changing tags. I am not speaking of a riveted VIN tag.

[/ QUOTE ] Its not a tag its a sticker. Even if you change this sticker to say your car has a V8 instead of a 6 cyl, there are plenty of areas where you would be able to spot the difference. NOTHING but the VIN can be taken or changed from this sticker. Is anyone else lost?

Not lost.
A hidden VIN can't be used to register a car either. So why not rebody a car, change all the tags and stickers, and redo the hidden VINs? I'm trying to understand where you draw the line. It would seem that a sticker with the VIN should be left alone and not replaced IF you are going to say that a trim tag should be left alone and not replaced. Trim tags are also legally made, sold, and changed but seem to carry a dark cloud wherever they go. Why is this sticker different?

------Respectfully,,,,,,How can anyone determine if a car is rebodied if the sticker in the door is tampered with. Its glued to the door not the body. The initial poster on this thread never mentioned why he needed the sticker. He could just as easily need it for many reasons other than the dreaded re-body. Those things get painted over by less than careful painters every day, or taken off to paint the jambs, and on and on.........Bill S
