Looks like BJ is adding this notice at the bottom of EVERY auction item, even later model cars.

**VIN NOTICE: DEPENDING ON THE STATE OF REGISTRATION OF THE BUYER, THE VEHICLE MAY REQUIRE AN INSPECTION AND BE SUBJECT TO A STATE-ISSUED VIN AND/OR OTHER REQUIREMENTS OF THAT STATE.**

Sounds like it was a old drag car painted white. Would love to see the report on it.

Here is the JM report on ZL1 # 61. Being a old drag car with the firewall cut one would think there would be mention of the trim tag and hidden vins. I deleted the top of the main page for privacy.

Here is the supposed original block that has since been found and installed.

The consignor should change their description.

"Numbers matching" is confusing and often interpreted as not the original engine.

Maybe the consignor isn't positive that the engine that was found is the original engine? Can't pin down the chain of ownership of the engine? In any case, William is obviously correct - the facts behind the car/engine reunion should be added to the description.

Well, that could depend on who found it.

The car has been certified, and the trim tag info is documented. Usually it is stated; this is the original trim tag, and I don't see that in the report. Since the car had firewall issues, the question about hidden VIN's is critical.

I keep a file on the ZL-1 race cars. This is an old screen shot I saved on #61 where they said it was an old sand drag car
