Anybody here have any BTDTs for getting a new VIN tag for an original 6? Gotta car w/o one, and dunno where to begin.
Suppositions, speculation, WAGs, and the like might sound good to you, but they count negative points with The Cap'n in his big book of good guys and baddies .......... We're looking for the real way to do it! TIA, The Cap'n

The best I can offer is: tell the owner it is a euro spec model, and it didn't come with one. Getting a decal made is tough enough and you have to go through PCNA. Getting a stamped tag is going to be even tougher. I did see one GT (one of the Meaney cars) that had been rebodied with a 914/4 chassis that had the VIN tag on the windshield pillar where the original tag had been covered with a "Dymo" label of the original 914/6 VIN. Note that the 914/4 tags are raised letters, where the 914/6 tags are recessed letters.
