And i wonder if the car has already been cut up once. Note the two different colors, not green and rust, but green and blue. Look back to where the rear seat back should be, you'll see the blue.

This seller will sell the damn thing, proving there is, indeed, a sucker born every minute.

A fool and his money soon part. If someone buys that POS they have more money than brains. Big f'in deal it's a GTXXX.

A data tag is good veificaion ..... but the proof is in the paperwork.
FYI ...... The proper term is "Supercar", as they were advertised in the day. The term "musclecar" was coined by some nerd magazine writer in th 80's.

As far as i'm concerned ......
a 1969 GTX convertible .... IS ..... a big deal. The 69 Plymouth GTX and Road Runer were probably the finest Supercars ever to hit the road.
The pictures don't tell much about the car, and the asking price is in the stratosphere, but that car could be a sleeper. A year ago I bought a 69 Coronet 500 convertible that was bad rusty with a NOM for $1200.00 ....... and sold it a week later for $3700.00. People want them.

I doubt anybody paying big money is going to restore this car, they just want the numbers to transfer which is totaly ilegal.

Question. I know where the con vin is on my old 73 Charger. And my 68 R/T Charger, and my 68 RoadRunner was.
On a 69 B Body. There should be three that are very easy to figure out. Correct?

The point is on cars that are like this people will cut out the piece with the number and transfer it to a better shell.

it took me and a sheriff, but I got my momney back from a used car lot when the title and vin plate didn't match the con vin on a 68 Roadrunner I bought in 1992. Can be caught if you know what to look for,

Actually .... four.
1 .... Dash VIN
2 .... data tag
3 .... core support, (Usually driver side, top or facing the engine side.
4 .... Left trunk rail under the weatherstrip.
Other VIN locations are passenger side of the engine block and transmission

Generally refered to as a "rebody". Not illegal if disclosed when sold.

Prior to 69 the only place the "VIN" was located was the VIN tag on the door post.
Without a Broadcast sheet the VIN tag could be moved to another car and nobody would now, long as the engine code matched the engine code on the data plate, IE "D" and "31" for a 67 273.
The body number on pre 69 is also on the broadcast sheet and fender/data tag.
The CHP will lead you to believe there are others, even when I call him on it he just replied "you can think that".
The other locations that our DMV accept are the door sticker (70 and newer), Certicards and truck frame numbers.

My 68 has the vin as per bluefury quote, on the core support, left trunk drain rail and dash etc. none on the engine block but there is one on the transmission.

Is it the VIN or a different number?
Prior to 1969 the cars had the shipping order number there along with some other digits.

He says the car is 8000 now and there is no engine or gearbox.
