Let me see if I understand you correctly, you "didn't get a chance to run the VIN by him" ? Why? Shouldn't that be your first priority if this car you own is some sort of pre-Yenko prototype or something? You're not making sense.

No, his statement is being misread. He did run his VIN by Greg, but he didn't run the VIN that this thread is talking about.

Ok, I see.
So, what did this Greg say about his vin? If he has all of this documentation, then why would anyone need to authenticate it?

Jeff, you can't possibly be giving any credibility to this list theory. Say it isn't so...

I really don't see how Tonawanda would know which engine was going into which specific car and pre-stamping the engines with the VIN so the assembly line workers at each plant would have to scramble around to match up the correct engine with the body it belonged to, but I'm trying to keep an open mind!

Yea Jeff H has it right it was misread, anyway you guys can go to Rabbitstoys.com and go to copos amd read about what Tim says about the paper. I fowarded Tim's recommendation to greg at D.P.E. so I am just waitign to see if he will do that. If it really is Vicne Piggins paper work.

Well you know Mr. belair, there really wasn't anyione or anywhere else to hang the hat on, you know. Ed C has been asked about teh car, enko.net has checked the car out, and they don't have anything, so if greg Long's paper is bogus then hey it's not a COPO unless I can dig up the first owner and find out what he did with the paper the car came with, so what am i suppose to do, I mean no one has proven it's not a COPO (we have been through this already, no need to go any further than this now)
