Re: Why restore??
[ QUOTE ]
The sale of trim tags has been a "big (legal) business" for quite some time. [/ QUOTE ] Trim tags as well as riveted VIN plates and paper titles. Many years ago, I routinely stripped 1st. generation cars simply for parts when I could find them. While dismantling a 'plain jane' 69 Camaro, a potential buyer "begged" me for the VIN plate and title. I refused! As Al Colvin has said, " a correct original car should be able to stand on its own merit", meaning its component casting/part numbers and they're date codes should be within reasonable limits.
