Help with Argo serial number

[Laird]

I emailed Argo my number on the plate on the dash and they sent me via email a form that I took into the MTO. I got it registered and plated(had the plates). The tag has a serial number and model number. Pop rivetted to the dash close to the steering arms.

That's the problem. The guy I got it from painted the tag and when I tried to clean it off it wiped off all the info.

Agro says the engine serial and color match the build of a 2006 blue Avenger 8x8 but the tranny serial doesn't match but it is from a 2006. I'm arguing with them right now about it. This thing only has 101 hours on it. The tranny hasn't been replaced. It's almost like new. Not sure what to do from here.
