Default L78 Docs For Sale

The latest example of where this hobby is going. There is an E-bay item #2458306382 for L78 documentation. I got an e-mail from this guy last week trying to sell me this paperwork for $1,000. Considering the original car was parted out and junked, there is only one possible use for these items, creating a fake car!!! This kind of stuff has to be stopped cold. It is wrong and should not be tolerated by E-bay or this board.

sorry, tried to set up a direct link couldn't get it to work.

I did a search for that item number and came up invalid. Typo or already removed?

Jusy went to ebay motors and typed it in and it worked. Look at similar post in this section for a clickable link.

He has a photo of the title listed in the auction as included, I do not believe that is legal.

Not sure about the pic of the title but selling of the VIN plate is without a doubt

In my opinion E-bay is becoming the official "pimp" of the collector car hobby. Anything goes and obviously does. It's about time this 800 lb. gorilla got put back in the cage. Too many people are getting ripped off and there needs to be some accountability and responsibility. Just a thought: notice how they now have a big presence at Carlisle. Makes you wonder what the real deal is. This hobby should be about enjoying the experience, the cars and most of all, the special people who help make it unique. Carnival hucksters have no place in this group. I hope they clean up this mess before it gets any worse.

At least the VIN will be in a lot of people's files for future reference.
