Car has the vin of a 6 but what things should I be looking for to make sure it actually is. (Trying to make sure it's not a VIN swap)

I suppose I shouldn't be surprised but the guy has disappeared on me. Pressed for details and he went squirrelly. Unfortunately I only have a partial VIN which is useless
914043. Car looked to be originally orange. Funny how it resembles situation with the orange one on eBay. If you haven't seen it https://www.ebay.com/itm/263207650690 Is it possible for someone to do such a good job on a VIN swap that I could never tell? Has me a bit gun shy. |
