Fake 442
Cant figure out how to add to the prior trail. Paul and scrappie.......please help and add to the prior postings .........the red 442 4sd convert i bought was returned!!!!! I told them the vin on the dashboard, title, motor and trans did not match the vin on the frame......thought the dealer didn't know it was a fake...... But they listed it again! Beware of the ..... 1971 red/white 442 convert w/ ac & 4spd......... 158462, buy a clone for 1/2 the price ............or with "real" documentation for more $'s . Classic folks, thanks for the help. I'm still in the hunt for something nice.

Say what?
"the vin on the dashboard, title, motor and trans did not match...
the vin on the frame."
How does that make a fake 442?
Because the frame was replaced?
As I read the above, ALL the other crucial numbers agree- original engine and trans, matching the title and VIN tag... it does not get much better than that.
I wish I had my original engine.
The frame is practically irrelevant to what makes a 442, a real 442.... you know, big engine, the suspension, stuff like that.
