[BaadAssGremlins] Re: ' to X or not to 'X'

[<eddiestakes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

There is no way to determine a 'real X' from a regular model. That includes 
all the Gremlin, Hornet, Pacer, and Matador series. In other words, nothing 
in the VIN or metal trim door tag to verify this. Most were added emblems, 
upgrades with a few more options in the package, but also have owned bare 
bones X models with few options also thru the years.
