Check out the closeup pic of the vin tag in the windshield. Notice anything odd?

It appears that my pointing out that the windshield VIN is clearly a forgery, they changed the VIN on the front page of the ad, took down the windshield VIN picture, and located the front fender VIN to include a picture.

Interesting find Garland! So who cares enough about this to pony up $8.99 for the full vehicle history report? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
It appears that my pointing out that the windshield VIN is clearly a forgery, they changed the VIN on the front page of the ad, took down the windshield VIN picture, and located the front fender VIN to include a picture. They obviously scraped that coating gunk off in response to your inquiry to show the fender VIN pic. The shot of the entire front trunk you can clearly see that it isn't scraped off there. BTW, what the hell is that stuff? It looks like asphalt! |
