Re: [FWDLK] Purist Question to ponder!!

You don't have to take the body off to inspect the radiator support,
or the area around the trunk lip, for example.  If numbers don't
match,
you know it isn't a survivor, and might be very reworked.  An
owner
who won't let you look around the vehicle is an owner with something
to hide.  Maybe not at a show, but if you are at a purchase inspection
and you can't look... then you walk away with one hand over the wallet.
Most Mopar owners I have known are straight guys who will tell you
what is repaired and/or replaced on their cars at sale time. 
At the
shows, people can get very guarded.
