Legal issue with VIN on a B-J car today?

Sort of makes B-J (and I assume, Mecum as well) sound like a fencing operation for dubious cars, eh?
I consigned a car to Mecum in 2020, needed a photo of the VIN, which would have been verified at admission (that auction was cancelled because of Covid.) Since I was representing the GTX as numbers matching, I had to sign a boiler plate agreement to the effect that any and all liability was on me, and I'd indemnify the company for any expense they incurred in the event of a breach. What I found interesting, was that the contract language specifically addressed the drive line numbers, body numbers were never mentioned.

In light of what the GTX on this thread sold for, the auctions results for my former car, which was highly documented, and numbers matching all the way around, don't seem so high, even though they were way over book value.
