Hey its not just ebay its also some supposedly "reputable" classic car dealers. 3yrs back when i was doing the restoration on my 62 fuelie i had the correct date coded non original block with a blank pad the machine shop that did the motor build for me stamped the pad with all the correct numbers for an extra $100 and it was itemized on my bill. i traded the car back to the same dealer that sold it to me when I bought my 98 convertible that i now have. I included with the car all the reciepts for the engine rebuild which documented the restamp and the dealer and i discussed what a nice job the shop did on the numbers. I later found out he resold the car and claimed the motor was the original engine because the new owner tracked me down and i told him it was a restamp. He was so pissed last i heard he was sueing the dealer.
