In this case, replacing the tag with an exact repro of the original tag would be deemed OK as you have the PHS docs to prove the authenticity of the car, and you are upfront with a prospective purchaser if you ever sell it. It's the guys that add/delete/create new cars that's the problem.

Update:

The guy selling the conv flaked on us. I say that, since he was reluctant while we had cash in hand, and will "get back with us in a few weeks". Oh, well.

A couple days ago, a 69 Judge, Carousel Red, 4spd, hideway car "found" us. Picked it up instead.

Similar condition, similar situation. Original block is gone, as well as the trim tag. Has paper, some signed by Wangers (whatever thats worth). Must be a magnet to missing tag GTOs, considering we haven't even been looking for these cars.

So I might be looking for some RAIII parts (and other 69 GTO parts) if anyone around here has any for sale. Might need WS block, 273 carb, 952 dist. Came with RA ex mans, dated May 8 and 14 of 70. Will use them, unless someone would be interested in a trade.
