Tag looks really crisp and clean- too new looking.Rivets look a little funny also.

Repo tag, and one of the very poor quality ones at that.

This dealer is near me...about 2 hour drive...I thought the D80 code on the trim tag never came into effect until second or third week in May 69?

Check the other cars this guy has...I really like the 69 Chevelle and 70 LS6...

http://canadianclassiccars.ca/en/ Yeah and he's got a 67 L78 SS/RS as well and this car with the fake tag makes ALL his cars suspect.... Why do people ruin their reputation with crap like this just to make a few extra bucks. That car on Ebay is damn nice and should sell for good money just on it's merits without the bogus tag.

I hear ya!...I am not sure if I would go as far as stating all their cars are suspect. In the end I guess it depends on what the buyer is looking for and if numbers matching is important to them and obviously how educated they are in spotting things that just do not add up....

Not saying anything is fake, but I enjoyed looking at the 67 RSSS and how it looks as though the driver side kick panel was once black maybe?

Youd' think with a fake tag they would have made the interior code match the interior. :noway:

Having seen how good the repos have gotten, yeah....

But not when they look like that :noway:

Steel wheel w/ dog dish cap would be std. for an SS car :thumbsup:
