We went through this in another thread and all came up with the same conclusion. Something is wrong here. I don’t blame Scott for trying though. I probably would too. Another option for you Scott, and no you’re not going to like it. Under the AC box is the hidden partial vin. If you have a boroscope you can pull the passenger wheel well and blower motor and by chance see it. I doubt it though. Next up pull the fender and the box. Most cars have them hidden behind the box. I say most because my 70 chevelle did not. I guessing it will match the data tag and not the vi number. Good luck, not easy but at least you get the truth.
