from left to right, when you hold it to the mirror;
line 1 int trim ~ paint code ~ vin ~ H= carb source
2 eng # rear# build month
3 trans # ~ 1 53 3 - other options

that's just a guess based on a real POP.

so who is Robt. Tuller, some fake dude that the PeeBait stamper made up?

Don't kid yourselves guys like this are hurting the value of all Chevy's and slowly over time eroding the market and confidence for muscle cars in general. Absolutely devastating for the hobby and has been for years.

Wagonman for some reason YOU feel justified in reproducing a car to exact standards IE restamping components and fake paperwork. I don't get that at all (yes they only made one convert Z28), but yet you find it immoral, dishonest sickening if someone procures faked components or documentation.

What you have done is keep these crooks in business. That goes for anyone buying restamped or fake documents. I have heard all the rationalizations: I'll never sell the car, its the only one made, I can't afford original parts so I buy restamped components. None of them have any merit to me. Again buying these fake components/documents is creating a market and enabling the crooks. Just say NO!

Every time someone purchases these faked components/docs it just give these people more incentive and resources to perfect their deceptive practices.
