Counterfeit Cars on FABO!!!
years back, finding a 69 up REAL performance car with the original eng trans was very rare. ( some 68 cars had the build sequence no on the back upper part of a B B).. I had a mopar buddy that was always calling with a car he "found" for sale. the car in this case was a 69 roadrunner, 383 car with the original eng/trans. now this car had been in his country ever since new. had changed hands over that 30 year period many times, and had many engines installed in it, he basically knew every time it sold and the history of it as decades went by.
what was funny back then the 90's decade lets say. if I had a car like this for sale ( once in a blue moon). NO ONe was looking for this #'s thing. then if I had a say real roadrunner but with a different 383 planted in it, No ONE was interested, HAD to be a numbers match stuff!!! ther crack me up!!!
when this clone thing first started, I wondered WHY!????? there were plenty of let say, REAL 383 project cars around. even a real hemi runner ROLLER could be found for realistic $$$$. yes you had to network and look. I personally feel all this clone thing started with people looking for a quick buck selling junk thru B J,,,,,
I have never had a problem taking lets say an early B body and stuffing a 440 in it. I just called it a 65 coronet with a 440 I stuffed in it, my description! HA
