Some have, Mike D for starters but as soon as he got out of jail he went right back at it again. Most of the cases that I am privy to, the offender plea bargained off or served a little time and then went right back to it.

I have commented on it before but a few years ago was the busiest year I have had for inspections around the country. I did 37 LS6 inspections and 30 of them were either completely fake or had major issues such as restamped drivetrains in real cars. I even have had 'friends' who have knowingly bought and sold fake cars or restamps and they continue to keep up their old habits, all in the name of money and greed. It has really put a sour taste in my mouth for not only the hobby but some so called 'friends'.
