chopstic81 Posted September 18, 2004 Share Posted September 18, 2004 just wondering if i bought a beat up old rusted early 70s (emissions exempt) z car from the junkyard could i swap vin numbers.... i know this might sound like fraud, but what is the basis of the vin number, its the chassis, correct? so by mixing some parts from an earlier z car, maybe even welding in some of the frame, technically the car would be both my 78 280z and the earlier z donor car... so which vin number would be the correct one... and more importantly if swapping over the vin numbers correctly, how hard would it be for them to catch me?

Dan Juday Posted September 18, 2004 Share Posted September 18, 2004 It would be illegal based upon your intent. But after my resent dealings with the DMV I sympathize. The athorities may never catch it but if they do you're hosed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
