That paperwork looks familiar,
Cool address for a Drag Racer.
The car is even cooler.

I checked old real estate records, and that street was not completed until 1971. Must be a fake.

H-3 highway here in Hawaii was completed in 1998, Took 30 years to build so that places it starting back in 68 $2Bil later though

I verified thru the original owners wife also that the address on the pop is the one he both grew up at and the address that was on the POP. I sincerely like being back on this site,what i dont apprteciate is someone making a statement with a smiley face regarding something they dont know anything about,and not based on any fact. I dont think the word "fake" should be used casually and without any merit.

I totally agree. It really upsets me when some people are so quick to state as a matter of fact that a car, a pop, a build sheet, a cowl tag is a fake with out offering one bit of corroborating evidence. As if they are the finial authority on the matter. Especially where cowl tags are concerned. When asked to qualify why they think it's a fake the response is always the same. "I can't say because then the guys making the fake cowl tag would know". That is pure BS. I've always thought that half the people that say a certain cowl tag is fake wouldn't know a fake cowl tag if they saw one. I had a guy a few years back on another site state as a matter of fact and with no corroborating evidence that a #'s matching 66 427 Vette I had for sell was a fake. He was real cocky about it until I drug his azz into court for diminished value. Sorry but that is one subject that really gets under my skin. Some people just need to put a sock in it.

TXSS your way off base as to why people don't disclose the differences between real and fake. The reasons are real and necessary in my opinion. I find this site extremely helpful in all aspects hobby. I always share what knowledge I feel appropriate, but you can go too far and actually help the builders of bogus cars. That where I draw the line.

Don't bad mouth the good, knowledgeable enthusiast on this site. If you want to know the differences take a look at a good one very closely and compare it to a fake. If you still can't figure it out PM me. Both type of tags have been posted.

Regarding the POP, I agree that was an unnecessary comment and I think the poster owes Chuck an apology.

"Don't bad mouth the good, knowledgeable enthusiast on this site"

Exactly who did I bad mouth?

I believe if you re-read my post you will see that I said nothing derogatory or made any negative reference to Unreal, this site or anyone on it. I said "some people" I did not say some people on this site. There's a big difference. My statement was in general terms regarding "some people" on the internet. I know the difference between a real cowl tag and a fake one. My point is I've seen a number of cowl tags, pop's, etc pronounced as Fake when they are not. But that's easy to do when a person can hide behind a screen name on the internet. As I said you may want to re-read my post before you call me down for doing something I did not do. People just need to think before they speak. " I don't think the word "fake" should be used casually " Just like I don't think the word liar or thief should be used casually.

I've said it before and I'll say it again this is the number one site on the internet for car enthusiast...bar none.

Chuck,
I meant that a a joke....didn't mean to ruffle any feathers. I thought a smiley face was a dead givaway that I was making a lame attempt to be funny. Maybe next time, I'll insert "Charley Sucks!" NO WAIT, He's apparantly the only one who knew I was joking.

I thought you posted the POP because it was ironic. I sincerely appologize.

As for keeping my day job.....thanks for the advice. I think I will.

Does this mean no one can joke on this site anymore?
