Anyone know if if the 67-69 Barracuda had any hidden VIN's?
Xs2sounds as if your doing something illegal, and yes every car ever built has a vin stamped on more then one part; I'm not going to say which ones until you state your reasoning for asking that in your first post
I don't know-I hope he isn't trying to do something illegal. I just went on Fbodies mainly because I bought a-supercoupe-and I asked about the same questions,I have been into Mopars since I can remember but never owned an F before.If it isn't legit,I sure would like to know it before I put big bucks into it.Don't hurt to ask.
not at all suspicious that you ask this as your first post.
All i have to say is wow. I really cant believe the reception i just recieved.
Id like to thank everyone for the candid comments and replies. Title and Vin questions are some of the most common questions asked.
Vin tag, fender tag, title, broadcast, build sheet...... probably hundreds of threads on these topics.
Thanks to all for simply labeling me as a thief.
I wouldn't take it personal, people seem to automatically assume that kind of thing because of all the stories we read & hear about with VIN tag swaps. (otherwise known as a re-body)

XS2 , and the simple fact that you didnt introduce yourself and tell us a little about your car and interests in A bodies or mopars. sometimes it gives off a suspicious impression when your first post is about VIN# stampings and no pics of your car or what your dilemma is. nobody is calling you a thief.
Most people here do not want to help somebody do something illegal, and yes, you're initial post was somewhat suspicious. It's like calling up a bank and asking if they have hidden camaras and motion detectors. With that said, it sounds like you were too trusting of the original sellers. At the bare minimum they should have included a vin # on the BOS. I don't think I would ever purchase a vehicle that I wasn't 100% was legitimate. What you have is a "Nested Sale", basically a vehicle sold several times without having the necessary documentation filed with the state.
The scary part of this situation really is whether or not the vehicle is stolen, or re-bodied, and whether or not the seller provided you with a real or bogus credentials. If the seller lied about his name to you it could cause the authorities to attempt to prosecute you. If you just make the car into a "track" car, you would be nearly as dishonest and possibly punishable by law. Do you have any means of contacting the original seller, or tracking the payment you gave him? If so, I would contact your local police department. If not, I'd give CARFAX a try with the VIN # you have and see if it was reported stolen or claimed by the insurance.
Good luck.
Guess im just irritated.
I spent three hours driving home today thinking about how many times i had opened and closed the door and not noticed a tag. Was not surprised as much as let down.
