Ironhead VIN question
I did a search,but didn't see this particular scenario mentioned.
Engine in question is purported to be a 1979 Ironhead.
Question that arises is this-is there ever a scenario when multiple numbers are on an engine,and it is somehow kosher?Or is this always a red flag of illegal tampering?
Here's the deal with the numbers-
The top one is Star 7FXXXXXH8 Star. (yes there are numbers instead of X's).
This number has been dashed totally across it's length as if it had been deleted.
Right under this number there is another one,which is Star 3AXXXXXH9 Star.
Best I can tell,the top 7F would have been a 1978 XLCR,and the bottom 3A would have been a 1979 XLH.
Is there any sensible,legal way this could have come to pass?
Thanks for any words of wisdom.
