This is a good example of WHY simply having the BS does not ensure getting a proper tag made. Whoever remade the tag missed a detail that should be on the tag.
Oh boy, this tread turned into a game. Find the flaw in the tag???

It does have power steering and brakes also.According to the build sheet, it's a pretty low-optioned car. The only thing that catches my eye (if I can read the broadcast sheet on my phone) is a ralleye dash, a clock and hood mounted turn signals. The rest is kind of plain Jane, but that's ok too.
I am not understanding.It has H9G on tag and IDEach plant has certain nuances to the tags that help identify whether a tag is legit or not. This tag is lacking certain characteristics typical of a tag for a 69 St. Louis (9G in the VIN) car.
I sent you a PM.I'm not saying things are cool or not cool.
What I AM saying is, doing some rudimentary online searching, I cannot find any current listings
for that car anywhere, but I am finding old listings - going back some years in some cases - on
some of the more well-known questionable websites out there.
It's ALWAYS good practice, on any such potential purchase, to do your due diligence. Homework,
research, whatever you want to call it - gather up enough tangible, credible evidence the car first
actually exists and is being offered legitimately by a real person.
If it is, then insist on either a) yourself or b) a trustworthy representative for you to inspect the
car in person. Lay hands on it, check out the various stampings, markings, any documentation
offered.
I mean, we're talking a ton of loot here, right? Call the "owner" on the phone. Dig up whatever
history is online for the car. Dig up whatever info is online of the owner.
There's WAY too many scams, fake deals and false websites out there to do otherwise.

The color looks like Mrs. MADD's dress.What if they misunderstood the paint coding system and went with GY3 instead?
Hmmmm

Ok so what are certain characteristics missing on this tag.
I can not tell the difference other then the tiny punch through inspection mark hole and the 3 digit pressed in marks up by the right mounting screw hole...And the bend in the tag at the other end.
