I saw that Friday and posted it over on the Chevelle site. People seemed surprised I had never seen the ad before and said &quot;Jim Bo's been selling them for years&quot;. I don't understand why eBay allows fake identification like POPs, buildsheets, etc to be advertised and sold there. I suppose vin tags are next. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/frown.gif[/img]

Technically, nothing besides the VIN tag is illegal. Although it ought to be.

And the seller is none other than Bill Clemens formerly of Chevycraft in beautiful downtown (maybe not quite downtown) Lubbock, Texas. Didn't Bill &quot;find&quot; Buddy Holly's '58 Impala in a junkyard, or bought it from a friend of a friend who found it in a junkyard? And didn't he discover a one of &quot;X&quot; L89 headed 1970 <span style="text-decoration: underline">LS6</span> Chevelle (wanna bet it came with a &quot;proper&quot; Protect-O-Plate)? And...And...And...forget it. What more can I say?

It comes down to the buyer educating themselves on things like this before buying a vehicle, as I don't see the sale of this stuff ending anytime soon. I don't care how good a reproduction is, there are always ways to prove the authenticity of real items and disprove the fakes.
