loads of these cars (real ones)B have had the tags removed and then re
attached.B the company that made the original rivets that held the plates on
is still in business and sells the odd little rivets by the bag in the uk.

The Vegas guy is right. It is the same here in our location. Just
because a person uses an Alpine fender, trunk floor, door or a 302 block
instead of the original 260/289 will not make it any thing but a Tiger.
But if the VIN number has been tampered with, remover and put back on
with that car is legally considered scrap. This is to keep people from
cloning a car and to protect the car manufactures. If this were not the
case then over time we would have more Tiger on the road than that were
built from VIN tampering. Or at the very least the same amount of cars
that were built back in the 60s. If you have a Tiger do not paint or
remove your VIN tag for paint for the reasons stated. JAL number no
problem it is not part of the legal title of the car (Look on your title
if it is not there then you can pull it if required). I'm not a lawyer
but I believe that this falls in to the category of basic common sense.
I have in the past looked for a Tiger and saw the VIN tag removed
painted under and put back on. I asked the guy is this an Alpine clone
or a Tiger? B He said "A Tiger of course". Knowing were to look (Pan hard
area, tunnel ECT) I said "No thanks". Buyer beware they are out there.
Just look at the VIN tag for F&%King around with then you have a real
Tiger with the attached value as original or not. B
