Watch the video.

Ad text does not claim the engine is original to the car, but implies it is. The V0128DZ stamping does not compare to other known original stampings. Trans stamps look ok, rear axle stamp has leading C and has clearly been altered.

Restored in non-original paint/trim.

Engine block has been restamped. Rear looks like it was CBU0905 so its definitely not original to the car



Color change from Fathom green/ white int.

----To me (at least) the broach marks look to have been done by hand. It's a pity as the car is good looking!....Bill S
