That Judge was owned by some one on PY?
The ad writing looks like the same as another ebay ad that was talked about here recently. (in 70-73 Firebird I think)  Just checked, it was 10 years ago?  danlevinson was the PY'er.

They were usually lot smaller stamps also.
Plus the 1st digit should be a '2' and not '7'

whoever re-stamped it just took the last nine of the actual vin# as opposed to the correct partial vin stamp numbers

hopefully, the information here will find its way to those bidding on the car. I hate seeing people get ripped off.
From the auction's Q & A section... "The block is the original and Varified (not a restamp)" |

varified...varies from one restamp to another
verified..a professional has observed and has determined its correct....

I'm surprised that no one here noticed it's in the wrong spot too. California built Pontiac engines have the vin stamp up close to where the head bolts up on th passenger side. Never down by the timing chain period.

1) Hire lawyer 2) get (hire) expert witnesses to testify the block is fake 3) prove that the seller's intention was to defraud you 4) get (hire) and expert witness to explain to and convince a judge that a few numbers on a piece of metal make difference in a car's value 5) if you get a settlement in your favor, hope you get paid .... you get the idea. You're screwed. |

WOW,,,, couldnt be happier right now. Where my VIN was stamped on the block and the way it was stamped didnt look right. It was a little suspect. It looked like it was done under a shadetree. But the price was right, even if it was a date matching motor, not numbers matching. Just did a extensive search on Fremont cars. My VIN stamp is no different from any other Fremont car. Turns out it is a numbers matching car. thanks Bermuda Blue, Ram4king |

The seller relisted it. He's still stating matching numbers.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
