They are both very different crimes. You do not have to prove someone knew about it being fake, just that they advertised and sold it as such. Under the law, he committed fraud. On another note, Tony was very very knowledgable when it came to 1st gen. Z's. He knew all the different part numbers like UH, 9204, 309, 472 etc. You guys that know Z's know what these are. He was not an uneducated person when it came to these cars. I have hours and hours of phone records with this man. He is a swap meet junkie, he knows what he is doing.
