Build sheets have been and will continue to be available to wrongdoers regardless of the opinions of board members.

IMHO I would rather see reproductions available publicly, with a system of checks/balances and transparency rather than leaving it to the Mopar underworld.

The BCS is one of many potential data points on a car. An important one, but not the only one.

If one is into Mopars for the monetary value, the most valuable cars will be the survivors with uninterrupted/unblemished histories, ownership and documentation. Followed closely by top-flight restored cars with similar provenance.


When these debates crop up, I am always astounded at the original "Gone in 60 Seconds". Filmed in 1973, the thieves were already moving numbers and transferring the build sheet from the U-code Challenger R/T stolen at the beginning of the film. The dark side has known about the numbers for a long time; wishing won't make it go away.
