Another Trim Tag For Sale
« on: May 11, 2013, 11:48:45 PM »
Here's another trim tag for sale on E-Bay. :'( Not sure if it's real or not but it's a X33 with Special Paint. I'm sure its going to end up on some car. Lets make sure it gets logged into the DB.

Yes, it's a repop. Anytime you see a trim tag from billc27806 you can pretty much guarantee it's a reproduction.

It is. He's been making this crap since the early 70's. He started out making them for Tri-Five Chevy's (so guys could change interior and/or exterior colors) and branched out.

In my opinion, HE and HE ALONE is the main reason this "hobby" is so screwed up. Do a Google search on Bill Clements Chevycraft and you'll see what I mean. I know of NO ONE that has anything good to say about this guy.

AS soon as I saw that stuff..  I thought it was him..   He muddied up the classic chevy world for quite a few years when I was very involved in the '70's. and 80's..
I thought he'd gone to his maker... or maybe somewhere else..  by now..

Unfortunately as long as money can be made off this, there will always be a ( Dollar Bill ) out there.
