What is the TUB difference between a 914-4 and a 914-6, not a GT just a 6, or are they the same makers, ie...Karman or ???

If you guys are still watching (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/unsure.gif) How hard is it for someone to transfer all of the 6 stuff over to a 4, rebadge it weld in the engine mount and any of the other metal parts, change dash, steering column all of the stuff from 6. I don't like it, But I know of such a car, the 6 was beyond repair and a Cali rust free tub was available and so the swap took place and was rebadged "because it all came from a 6" and has all doc's window sticker manuals everything,
he only told me because he said the new owner should know, plus if you knew 6's you would know.
The doner was a 73, so better doors, retractable seat belts, I'm not sure what else you get with a 73 that 69-72 didn't have. Besides the seats.

What value difference would there be? Besides YOU KNOW. I think just knowing it could
ruin it for me, I don't know, I'm not a purest, but it somehow just doesn't seem right.
What do you think, am I making too much out of it? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/confused24.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/assimilate.gif)

If you were sold a car that was advertised as an original /6, and it turns out to be a re-badged car, I'd be making all kinds of noise about it. A conversion is a conversion. Even if "everything" was transferred over, it's still a conversion. Advertising and selling a car without disclosing this constitutes fraud.
