Title: Nightmare of 427 provenance
Post by: AC Ventura on January 11, 2017, 18:16:35
So has this car has been built up from a genuine discarded damaged chassis, which came from a car which was given a new Autokraft chassis, but kept the original chassis number CSX 3272? And does it follow that this (red) car is of contemporary construction, sitting on the former cars original, but repaired chassis, which no longer possesses aforementioned chassis number?

   Here's what seems to be the same car (check out the 3 rivet chassis tag)......... wearing a different reg, just to clear things up.

   Is this case of unscrupulous multiplication, outrageous pricing, or am I missing something?
