?? Crush a car because it has a wrong tag? PLEASE SEND ME ALL YOU CARS WITH FAKE OR WRONG TAGS, I'll gladly pay scrap price and even buy dinner. I make race cars and pro touring cars (trim tags dont matter on those cars) out of all of them and get rich during the process..

I guess I shouldn't have crushed that original 64 Thunderbolt I had out back because when they acid dipped the body to race it, the tag got screwed up. Oh well

Simply put,you cant use a trim tag for "documentation" any more than you can rely on a stamp pad for it,as both are easily changed . With a factory paperwork car however you can melt down the original engine and trim tag and make jewelry out of them,and you still have a documented car.

Canadian cars have excellent documentation right from GM BUT guys are building cars around paperwork.

Car guys in the know should contact the seller with the resources that show there is a mismatch of tags and give him a chance to be educated and honest. ( I see this seller is likely a dealer with poor feedback)

Peebait will do nothing as their recent block of bidders ID's has prevented educated do-gooders from informing bidders of bogus cars.


Confiscate and crush cars for switched trim tag? Is that the Oklahoma law?

not a category for me to check. - no vote.
