Nick, I think you nailed it. The problem is these tags can fall off. I'm all for using a secondary method of attaching a vin tag on these.

I'm reaching out to Bonhams to see if they have a picture of the data tag, it's clearly on the car, but I can't see it well in the images.

Looks like a really, really nice car.

Yes, I understand that. Anyone buying the car should check it out and try to find out the history behind it. I've had run-ins several times with the DMV over my "missing VIN tag rivets".

I don't know how many people purposely remove the VIN tag when restoring a car or if it just came loose. If mine were loose, I'd be putting some rivets on it.

Nick-
Any altered VIN tag on any motor vehicle should be cause for concern. I’m with you that NCRS type people are not our style of club. However Vin tag monkey business can and often does detract from value, raise questions and is often illegal. Gloria, the VIN tag affixed with shiny Philips head sheet metal screws is visible in the photo set on the auction link Nick sent. Here it is again: https://www.bonhams.com/auction/28009/preview-lot/5609432/1961-chrysler-300-g-convertible/

Thank goodness we don't live in the Corvette world! If our club was like that, I wouldn't be a member.

The VIN tag has been off the car. In the Corvette world that would be problematic.
