What is the point of sticking a badge that doesn't belong? Who do they think they are fooling?
I suppose they fool all sorts of people.
Then, there are replica cars and tribute cars, there are people who will take a stock Nova and upgrade it - and put the SS badge on it.
Always verify the ViN, folks. Always verify it. (Or use a reputable auction house that verifies the VPN - multiple times, once at listing and once when closing the sale.) I had one car not get delivered because the VIN turned out to be wrong. Mecum does pretty good research, but all auction houses end up taking a car back here and there.
I did see something on the mecum site that you have 72 hours to return the vehicle
Yeah, but they check VIN. You can also check it and if it was misrepresented you have pretty much forever to return it. Well, in theory it'd be years and years. They're obligated to not misrepresent vehicles.
