Hi again.
It actually isn't the nightmare that many imagine it to be. I've been involved in a couple of those. On the side of the good guys, of course.
The trick is to get your attorney to 'get it'. After that, it isn't that big of a deal. It helps to start with the analogy of fine art. You buy a Rembrandt, for Rembrandt money, have it appraised and discover that, while the signature is indeed Rembrandt's, the rest of the painting was done by Joe Blow out of Pittsburg last year. That sort of thing. Then you go to the physical evidence of the cut-out or altered numbers. Holes that are missing that should be there, factory components, like the crush nuts for power steering brackets, that shouldn't be there, that sort of stuff. The good guys almost always win. It's just very time consuming.
