Has a September '69 body tag [09C] VIN tag is 124379N542215. That VIN would have been final-assembled on or about November 14, 1968.

One or both tags are not original to the car.

Trim tag looks more original to me.  I vote for the Vin tag not being correct.  It has been removed at one time (the metal dash panel is a repro)

No reason to fake trim tag unless to change color.

Someone might want to find the hidden vin. Could be trouble.
