Default Re: Another Trim Tag for the Books, X33

Rick:

While I understand your point, I must respectfully disagree. By that logic, what if I had a legitimate L78 car and during restoration the block fell of the engine stand and was damaged beyond repair? What do I do? Well, I get some guy to fake stamp another one, right? No. You put a legit L78 "correct but NOM" engine in and just live with the history of the car.

No doubt there are a few hard luck stories out there. Frankly I can't imagine "misplacing" a trim tag on a highly desirable car. That scenario can't represent more than a fraction of 1% of the cars out there. Hardly justifies the industry of "repro" tags that result in so many fake cars being misrepresented.

Just my 2 cents.
