    repro window sticker

    I ordered a window sticker from window-sticker.com and I really have to say it is not very close to the original. I have the original but I thought it might be fin to have one on the window for shows. The print was off and the pricing was incorrect. The paper was much thicker than my original too. Very disappointed. Has anyone else done this?

    why would you want it too be 100% correct. if that was the case that would add more fuel to the big fire of fake cars and documentation

      Save your money and just copy your original and hang it in the window.

          here are both the original and repro. The difference in options was not their fault, my daughter ordered it for me and had some of the options wrong.

            Can you be totally certain the original one is the original one ?? That thing sure looks to be perfect. If it is the real deal, it's a good one !! ( They didn't usually come off that neat ) Ask me how I know.

              I'm 99% that it is the original, we have full history on the car including copied of the original title. The paper thin like other window stickers I have seen. The window-sticker copy has the base price and shipping cost incorrect and the word "Chevrolet" is italicized on the original. I just really thought it would be much closer.

                Also note the number on the new sticker under where it says Dealer To Whom Delivered. The number on the old sticker is number 26265 and the number on the new sticker is 26256. For sure some interesting differences. The dealer address and the complete spelling of Florida is also different.

                  Tom,
                  I completely agree. The pricing is something they just shouldn't get wrong

                    Shouldn't an original 67 sticker have the "IDENT" number in the upper right hand corner that begins with an 8 ????

                      I don't believe the one your calling original is an original, where's the Ident # on the upper right side???

                        When you look at the zone code data base, zone 26 dealer 265 is Holler Chevrolet as found on documentation on a 1972 Chevrolet.

                        The code on your new sticker is 26 256 and it also comes back to Holler Chevrolet. This is a reported fact from a 67 Impala 427. I would think the code on the new sticker is what should have been on your original. I am no expert, but love documentation and dealer items and I'd have to say the original is not the original.

                              Brian, agree with ya. There should be an Ident. Number in the upper right side.
