No body ever was made at one plant and shipped to the other for final assembly.  For one thing the Norwood plant was a Chevy plant with a separate Fisher Assembly plant in the same building, and LOS was a GMAD plant where the Fisher and Chevy assembly functions were all on the same line.  If the car has a VIN tag from one plant and a trim tag from another one of the tags has been swapped.  If its a VIN that was swapped, 90% of the time your dealing with a stolen car, 100% of the tiome the car is going to cause the owner issues with the State DMV if an inspection is ever done and the DMV inspectors do their job.  Which makes the car completely worthless as a car, it has scrap and parts value only.  Don't even consider buying this car.

He has been notified of the issues. We will see what happens.

And as usual, nothing.

I reported it twice. Not sure what the point is of even having a reporting system

Nice detective work.
If the pictures Ed posted above are of the same car as the ones posted on the new Ebay ad (and they certainly appear to be), then that is clear fraud by the seller Tokenhunt.
