Build yourself a 1968 GTX clone on eBay........

I know this is not legit for a resale of a car. But if you have a /6 a-body with a V8 in it it is just as illegal . If you were to hit someone your insurance would not pay if they found out you modified the car.

And if you were to to the engine swap legally . You would need to get a reconstructed title and it would have to pass today's emission standards.

So it is a catch 22. Someone with a 68 Belvidere that has installed a 440 should have a vin for a 440 to legally insure the car without the hassle. But to sell it as a GTX would not be right.

How many of us told our insurance co. that we put 340's in our /6 Valiants and Darts. Probably not any.

I did when I gave them my VIN for my Duster. It States it is a H code. 340 car and I am paying the insurance for what the car is. Not a /6 low dollar premium with the high dollar risk.

Those who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.

It is the law and that saves people from getting screwed when it is enforced. That is pretty simple and sums it up real quick.

How pissed would you be if you found out the your H code Duster was really a /6 car that had been rebadged?

How about if someone ripped off your H code Duster and re-VINed it because they had the correct items off a junked out car?

I always insure the vehicle for what it is with an agreed value plus have the agent note any major modifications in writing so if something happens I will be able to file a claim to get my money. The more high dollar parts on a car the more likely it will get stolen.
