1969 Chevelle trim tag help

[SS69chevelle]

body tag looks new and is likely from a color change to a more desirable color and interior seat selection. The numbers on the tag do fit the 05A range and the vin should be in the 348xxx range which might be the same numbers found on an original tag that was replaced. I agree about the previous observations and will add if the engine had issues this will just compound the suspicions. good luck to your friend with it.
