... Do it in Oklahoma and you'll be looking at triple damages and legal fees. One could almost start a rather lucrative business if they lived in OK just buying high dollar cars off Ebay with fake tags and jamming the seller for the damages.
And don't think that hasn't been discussed among a few

The first purchase we looked at would almost cover the second 'high-$$$' one we were looking at - it could still happen :thumbup:
Would you like a prospectus ...
Agree fully with Mark on changing color :thumbsup:
I've changed the color of a dozen or better vehicles, including two I still presently own - and
NEVER considered tampering with the visible factory tags or markings to "
Fool and Impress my Friends" (or whatever the wording was in that one Cowl tag sales ad ...)
There is absolutely no need or logical reasoning for it - and tons of reasons NOT to do it.
Who gives a
poop what the cowl says if you repaint a vehicle

The ONLY reason to try and tamper with the tags to change a code (color or option) is to defraud someone - PERIOD.
If you changed a color and not the tag it can always be documented and even repainted the original color if someone were to buy the car and restore it in the future.
These vehicles we see at shows and auctions with swapped tags are done ONLY to increase the desired sales price and defraud a buyer -
there is no other reason ...
