Default Re: O7 B-J Cowl Tags

Those trim tags are obvious forgeries. Anyone know if that was disclosed? If not the new owners may have a cause of action for fraud, in my humble opinion.

I won't go into my usual rant about fake tags, but what really pisses me off about the B-J connection is this. We kept hearing about how many thousands of cars were turned away because they just weren't good enough. Surely, B-J has employees that are sharp enough to spot these fake tags. If they allow these cars to be misrepresented "by the seller", they are just as much a part of the fraud as the guy who stamped it and the crook who installed it.

How many times during the auction this year did you hear the announcers state that there was "full disclosure" about an engine not being original, a car being a clone, or some other aspect on non-originality? They also kept saying that the descriptions and the disclosures were the "responsibility of the seller". Sure looked like a transparent attempt to escape liability.

Those tags are so obvious, no knowledgeable person could miss them.
