[Chrysler300] simple suggestion re what I said earlier re rebodying

["christopher beilby" <thelastbestgenius@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Earlier I mentioned the Shelby Register, and how it made it more difficult 
to create fake cars, and claim they were originals - to show how simple a 
basic system san be set up:

1) A simple proof of a car existing some time before was any 'For sale 
listings' - the 300 Club magazine already often lists cars that have been 
advertised recently. If the Club decided to expand it's current list of 
known cars to also include some extra history, a good start would adding any 
time a car was advertised, and say key points of how described. eg in the 
current '300C chassis for sale' case, could record against that VIN number, 
that the car was advertised as chassis only on such and such a date, and 
where advertised, and say price, etc..

2) current owners could supply detail of when they purchased their car, how 
and when found/advertised, etc.. This stuff is not likely to cause many 
problems, open disputes, and if supplied by owner, would not take much Club 
time to list/add if supplied in agreed format/email.

3) the Shelby Register often featured registration number/detail - this is 
another easily checkable detail, not usually open to dispute.  It provides a 
clear trackable ownership history.

4) the other things helpful to simply list is Current/original color, 
options, mileage - this can be done on first listing, then if the car is 
advertised later, and same detail noted/listed, it helps know what has been 
changed, possible speedo wound back etc..

The other final option, is current owner could supply any known history of 
car, but Club should maybe include this only if explained 'as provided by 
owner', and veracity not confirmed by Club at that stage?

Leave it with you - anybody else welcome to comment, but I've said enough 
from me on this.
