Any one can have a fender tag made up to say whatever they want it to. Believe the VIN. Yep VIN is what counts!

More than likely, its a mistake on the tag from the factory. I just bought a 69 RR parts car that still has its original fender tag in place. It has never been altered and matches the body stamping on the core support and dash vin. The fender tag is R4 red but the car is all white. The booster is gone and there is white paint under it. Simply a mistake at the factory.

Could be butt the rest matches perfect to the car so dont think that it must be a typo than... dont know if therr is something else to verify ... It has E87 on the tag , but what VIN is stamped on the tag ? Picture of the tag would be helpful as asked. Also even if the engine was upgraded , the fender tag would not have been changed to show such an upgrade. If the VIN tag on the dash has a U then the car is a 440-4bbl.
running up my post count some more .

Any one can have a fender tag made up to say whatever they want it to. Believe the VIN. That is until someone has a new VIN tag with the engine code changed , there are many cases of this happening and one guy in NY that was a member actually went to jail for doing it . I used to have the 2 vin pictures on my computer ...

I know of a 70 Coronet R/T convertible that the owner (dads best friend) factory ordered a 440 convertible and what arrived from the factory was a 440 6 pack convertible missing the 6 pack carbs and intake. Badging was changed at the factory. Fender tag, vin tag and door sticker were V code. Car still exists today and would love to get my hands on it. Can you explain how the Badging was changed at the factory ? with the Ramcharger option it would say "440" on the hood scoop for either the 440 mag or 6 pack, for non Ramcharger cars there would be no badging. someone please correct me if I am wrong.
