$25,000 for a VIN plate and some paperwork? And the actual VIN isn't disclosed until you close the sale? Seems legit.

I agree. The ads been posted for several years if I recall. However, the document pictures were shown before.

I was more curious about what car #. I'm sure it will never be revealed.

Does the crooked home made numbers on the VIN plate raise any eyebrows ? ? I don't see any factory plant being that sloppy ! Those blank VIN plates and number stamps are easily found and it looks like a cross eyed drunk did the stamping.
