Funny.... In the 70's I owned a 71 2002 #1666222 ....easy to remember.....

The DMV registration paperwork had it as 166222...... I never changed it.... Drove the wheels off that car. Sold it on about 1984 I think....

Dang, need to check the vin of the 1600 I got a few years ago.

1562160/1552160 is registered in the 2002 Registry.

Enterered by matts1602 (somewhere in CA) and states that the car is undergoing a full resto.

Damn, I have 1564818. Guess that's not worth $120k.

the vin # is off by one digit on the frame and not the engine tag. Waitingfor rsponse from buyer in Germany, the price tag was $120,000 less shipping costs, Insurance etc.

Well, the first one i posted was just that $120,000 i even have a reply email confirming $120,000. Maybe it was a major typo on his/her end.

And a penny under the rear seat, sorry, not believable. A mismatched VIN does not add value just uncertainty about origin in my opinion.

Im guessing its that they are thinking its like a rare misprinted Elvis Stamp, or a rare Penny with Lincolns face the other facing the other way.

been watching too much Pawn Stars.
