In watching various auctions of high-end Healeys, particularly Ms, I read o=
pinions that it would be very difficult to counterfeit all the identifying =
numbers on a Healey. My question for the better informed would it really be=
 that difficult to get dies made up to punch realistic numbers, grind off t=
he old numbers on the trim pieces and body panels and make up some ID plate=
s?=C2=A0 If cars are worth over $150k, I would think it would be a relative=
ly small investment in tooling and with all the scanning equipment we have =
now, I can't see it being that difficult.
Don't worry, not asking for a friend.
