Well, let's answer that question with another question--have you ever heard anyone refer to a "numbers matching" GT? The VIN will tell you about the original paint color, weight, axle load, and so on, but that number on the block (probably 19S *********) doesn't appear anywhere but on the block. European automakers did quite a few things differently than US automakers--and, as far as I know, still do.

Re: Numbers matching GT???

So let me see if I hear this correctly ....

The BLOCK number is no where to be traced or matched against????

Correct.

So, what do WE mean by a "NUMBERS MATCHING" GT?



WE mean there's no such animal.


Can anyone REALLY prove that you have an original engine?

No, they CAN'T.
