Motor and VIN Don't Match

Post by Droman »

Hi everyone just wondering if someone can give me some advice on matching VIN numbers VS non matching. Everything being equal how much less would non matching be worth? Thanks

No Spiders have matching numbers.

But the series being a match AS AC or BS BC, for example, is significant for originality and value.

my somewhere in late 1979-early 1980 car has an ID tag with the VIN, and some parts catalogue number only, the engine no. section of the tag is blank and I have noticed this on all the cars in the 1980 range.
What worse is that with out the US compliance plate in the door jam, the actual age of the car us unknown.....

On earlier cars I think they have put the engine numbers on the ID tags????
