1547 on Ebay

[tomhawk]

Why do people expose the Ford vin. for everyone to see? Hertz car on Ebay 1547 listed  with Ford vin.  I would prefer to keep my vin private. What would be your thoughts?

I keep my ford vin to myself personally....Provenance is also VERY important in my book to avoid "replicas".You kinda need both...

There are two groups of thought on the subject, each with their own reasoing. Most choose to "error" on the side of being ultra safe but I can see both sides. Not sharing is IMHO the safe bet at this time.

There is another angle to showing the early cars Ford VIN but don't want to suggest things that may not be correct nor provide ideas for those with ill intent
