124379N542215

That VIN was final-assembled on or about November 14, 1968. Car has a 09C body tag, 3rd week September, 1969. One or both tags are not original to the car.

Trim tag does not really add any value. Buyer should very beware of that vin.

It's back, now with VIN Audit docs to create the impression there is nothing to worry about. Since the top of the dash has been replaced, the VIN tag was removed. Wonder if it matches the hidden VINs?
