But someone crosses the line IMO when they stamp VIN #'s into ID plates and various parts of the car like hinges and shock towers or wherever.

I'm with you
to a degree on the "...more accurate replica" issue. I really like it when people do that...I recall Dean Lampe's Hurricane build. I admire those who know enough and care enough to make their replicas more realistic...but I also love driving mine and it is nowhere near "realistic"...a small block V-8 in a big block body style
...someday there will be a big block in my future
and in my replica.
I'm wholeheartedly with you about the addition of the VIN and particularly using one of AC's VINs...nobody I know likes a liar and that just REEKS of intent to decieve.
Cheers!
