such akward statements about correct this that and the other stated in such couched terms were red flags all the way.
Perhaps the scatch marks dont look like tool or chisle marks but the tool and chisle marks do.

* Characters are very crisp
* Character depth and sharpness
* Pad is obviously (to me) decked
IMO, the entire string of characters was stamped with NEW stamps. Also, extremely nice and neat. Not typical factory production, to me.
This, alone does not make it a bad car, by any means. It may be a very solid, no hit, great car to have. I just wouldn't rely on someone telling me it's an original stamping and then pay for that statement.
You can buy a very nice coupe for under $50k. PM Mike Terry on this forum. I believe he has a very nice 63 coupe for sale.

The only tool or chisel marks I see are the delivery date stampings, which were supposed to be done on the VIN tag, but, some dealerships put them on the trim tag instead (if they even bothered to stamp the delivery date at all).
