    86 M35a2 with a '66 engine? Is this possible?

    The frame matches with a 66, as do both axle tags. I know 12,6 is absolutely high; however I purchased it with the confidence that it was fully restored... I'm calling the seller tomorrow. It's not an 86 because the data plate is false. Also, VIN was lower left of front area of frame, near...

    Hood/Reg. number?? Where do I find it if my data plate is one big lie :/ My data plate is false. I found the vin on the frame rail but where exactly do I scrape off paint to find the registration/hood number? I searched all over and cant seem to find it Thanks

    86 M35a2 with a '66 engine? Is this possible?

    Yes sir, unfortunately it is. Please do not mention the name of the seller if you personally know him either via the forum or otherwise. As I said, I'd like to keep it on the 'down low' until it's resolved.

    86 M35a2 with a '66 engine? Is this possible?

    Thank you everyone for your support. We paid via check.. it was odd because when I asked if we could pay via credit, pay pal, or Am ex, instead of saying 'no,' he neglected it and wrote 'checks or cash only' ... very robotic answer. He was very un-helpful and forced me to wait about 10 days...

    86 M35a2 with a '66 engine? Is this possible?

    hahahahha I can't mention his name until it's all over due to legality. If he returns the money, I will inform everyone of the issues along with the name of the seller assuming he satisfies my requests. If he doesn't and this goes to court, you'll obviously get a name. He's a resident of FL and...

    86 M35a2 with a '66 engine? Is this possible?

    It included a title but the title did not even have the seller's name. The seller is supposedly a 'dealer,' yet there is no dealer signature of any sort -

    86 M35a2 with a '66 engine? Is this possible?

    I did unfortunately buy it off Ebay. We are sending a letter from our attorney to the seller.. This is entirely unfortunate as he stated it was in 'excellent' condition and that it was 'completely restored' in the past few months. However, there's significant accumulation of frame rot, body rot...

    Frame vin does not match the title. What the Heck do I do?

    86 M35a2 with a '66 engine? Is this possible?

    my Issue is that I was told everything on it was from 86, and that he completely restored the vehicle. Everything on the truck is rotting and falling apart, so yes, to me, finding out the year matters. also, for purposes of legality, matching vins MATTER. ...!?

    86 M35a2 with a '66 engine? Is this possible?

    Um... Bad news: the VIN on my data plate does NOT match the vin on the Frame Rail.

    86 M35a2 with a '66 engine? Is this possible?

    The PO says this is the original engine... so is the truck's year a lie? or did the original engine get replaced with an ...older .. one..?

    Turbo Intake Hose Hump (coupler) Dimensions ???

    and if you have the dimensions from the intake pipe to the turbo itself (the coupling), that'd be incredibly helpful too. I can't measure my own because they literally are THAT dry rotted..
