Whats it Worth

[black69]

This is an easy fix.

Buy motor, get certified by Al as Charlie suggests. Its a gamble, as you may be buying a restamp.
Then if positive, post the VIN here. I think your liability towards a lawsuit is low, if its certified.
This thread will come up down the road when the car goes up for sale (they all do). <span style="font-weight: bold">The internet keeps things forever</span>.
Anyone buying an L89 vette WILL do a background search. They will plug in the VIN. That is a big big dollar car.
Everyone will find you on this yenko.net thread.
You can also remind the current owner sooner than later, this will all playout as I have outlined, and shorten the whole dance. He has to deal with you unless he is retarded. I think he will deal with you.
