from left to right, when you hold it to the mirror;
line 1 int trim ~ paint code ~ vin ~ H= carb source
2 eng # rear# build month
3 trans # ~ 1 53 3 - other options

that's just a guess based on a real POP.

so who is Robt. Tuller, some fake dude that the PeeBait stamper made up?

To have avoided any possible doubt about it being fake you should have used the name:

MILES O SETTLE


That's an anagram for:

ELLIOT M ESTES

Tommy, It is also a joke when "people" sell repo parts as NOS on e-bay.......

Vehicle history is one of the only ways to prove a cars authenticity. If a car comes out of nowhere and all it has is a protect-o-plate and/or GM docs as proof, you have to ask yourself why.

Don't kid yourselves guys like this are hurting the value of all Chevy's and slowly over time eroding the market and confidence for muscle cars in general. Absolutely devastating for the hobby and has been for years.

only vins cannot be created.and unfortunatly chevy didnt utilize there vins to tell a cars true pedigree....

faking pop's and paperwork for monetary gain is just dihonest....sickening to me..i hope nobody gets burned....

Wagonman for some reason YOU feel justified in reproducing a car to exact standards IE restamping components and fake paperwork. I don't get that at all (yes they only made one convert Z28), but yet you find it immoral, dishonest sickening if someone procures faked components or documentation.

What you have done is keep these crooks in business. That goes for anyone buying restamped or fake documents. I have heard all the rationalizations: I'll never sell the car, its the only one made, I can't afford original parts so I buy restamped components. None of them have any merit to me. Again buying these fake components/documents is creating a market and enabling the crooks. Just say NO!

This stuff scares the Crap out of me. I've already seen build sheets , cowl tags, VIN tags that are VERY VERY good!!!! And now protecto Plates..... Tough to Judge a real car anymore..........
