    Here's a note I received -

    If you are interested, you will need to prove (to me) that you have an authentic Stage1 before I send the contact information. Sorry, but I don't want to open the door to 'Clonesville'.

    I'd be interested in buying one from you,Marco. You certainly know that my Stage 1 is the real deal.

    Let me know how much a tag will cost me.

    Thanks!

    Hi Carl -

    I don't have these - someone else does.

    I'll forward your info to the person who has them. You can deal with them directly regarding the particulars.

    Thanks!

    Thanks Marco-I got your email and the guy that has these trans tags. I will send a check for a tag.

    Thanks guys!

    I don't think they are the real tags!

    A guy sold one on ebay several months back, which looked like a home-made repro to me. GM NEVER sold those tags, EVER! If they are originals, they were stolen when they walked out of the plant 33 years ago... I DON'T THINK SO!!!:Smarty:

    I must agree with Dan. IF GM made replacement tags, why would they make the replacement tags with paint when they already have a supplier for the originals that are annodized? Sounds fishy to me...

    I can't tell you.

    Who knows when the tags were made?

    I know some people have scratched up/scraped up BB trans tags and this was meant to offer a solution.

    I'm sure you could get pictures from the seller before purchasing and if you don't like it, don't buy it :)

    Again, I'm only the messenger :laugh:

    Hey,if it helps us restore our cars,who cares what happened 34 years ago!!!!!(if an assembly line worker supposedly took these tags)

    Please,sell me a tag-I can certainly use it since the paint has worn off mine.

    Not trying to give anyone grief.
    Personally, I'd MUCH rather have a scraped up original tag...
    Just my .02 worth
