You should have kept the one you had with the holes in the valve covers!

Sounds like a mess. Bet that is why he couldn't push it out of the trailer for better pictures. Someone would have recognized it. Bet it is stolen or left over from a rebody as mentioned.

Stupid question but bare with me.....How or can you remove the VIN tag with the windshield still in and it looks as if the windshield is still in place

If you strip everything out of the dash frame while it's in place, you could probably drill or grind out the bottoms of the rivets from underneath.
However, on that heap, the dash is out out of the car and the windshield is just set in place.

If the seller produces a Title and the VIN indicate its what its advertises to be and you find numbers on the body that match the VIN, its a real GTX?
I admit im suspect about no fender tag and especially the removed VIN.
Before my car left for stripping and body work, I removed the fender tag. The dash was out and being sent out to be blasted and I removed the VIN.
I kept both in a safe place until I got the car back

Being a 68 the body numbers don't match the VIN so the dash tag & title won't match the body numbers... The body numbers are the VON so they will match the fender tag which also doesn't have the VIN on it..... You need a broadcast sheet to tie the VIN to the VON....

What im trying to get at is what if its legit the VIN tag and fender tag were stolen. How can you prove its a real GTX besides the trim. How do you get a reproduction VIN tag?

I do not.....maybe more than me , maybe less than me. But I do know that I've had my hands and tools on thousands yes thousands of cars trucks bikes and engines over the last 30 plus years and I know that I am coming to the end of my road with this hobby. Most days I could care less what's in my garage. Other days I love it. So I know

Well, all I'm saying is that don't throw a jab at someone about them being in the wrong hobby if you have no idea how much of a hobbyist that person is.
