OK my life sucks right now, my 280zx got green sickered a couple of weeks ago and today when it was nearly finished getting removed the lvva guy noticed that my chassis number doesnt match the plates registered chassis number, now i have to prove that the numbers are the same or something like that, Help!! What do i do? any advise would help

Is he looking at the number stamped on the firewall behind the motor or the metal tag on the left hand side of the bay? Do the two match? What do they both say?

I think it had a personalised plate at some stage.

the number registered to the plates is different to that on the chassis/firewall, the number on that tag matches the number for the plates

Sounds like it's been paper and plated, to avoid revin maybe?

yea i think so, looks like ill be going for a revinn

Man that sucks dick!

Can you show us photo's ?

its really hard to read but the car is registered as a 1978 fairlady 280z chassis number 000512 but the cars firewall has 19482(?) on it, i dont know the last number as its been drilled out for the throttle linkage

Maybe you should ask that guy on the 280ZX facebook page that used to own it? Or I can ask Shelvin what he knows?

What's the start of the chassis number? HGS130 or GS130?

Looking at the mileage history on carjam makes me think the plates were swapped some time in 2013.

hgs130, plates were swapped in 2003, ks dropped 70000 at the same time, i cant understand y it has never been picked up in a wof before
