Trim Tag for Sale

Kinda funny that the buyer/cloner literally paid almost $1500 for a junk piece of tin plus another $275 for the tag, when he could have just bought a fake tag and saved a ton. Too bad that in the end someone will get screwed with another fake car.

That is the whole fraud thing.
If the buyer knew it was a repro, he wouldn't buy it, he would just get one made.
He thinks it is real.

The guy selling that cowl section is a crook.
It really should be a crime for him to claim it is authentic.

I bet with a little cooperation from a Govt agency, there is going to be a paper trail for the maker & requester of the phoney tag.
If the maker of the tag is the same person as the seller now.
Then that sounds like a crime to me.
Like selling a copy of a painting -it is deception.

Also those tags are proprietary.
I wonder if the reproducers have GM permission to make them?
That sounds like a crime also.
