Seriously? Nobody bothered to write this down? Y'all know that eBay Ads don't stay around forever, right?

IIRC it's illegal in CA & most states. :confused:

illegal in CA to remove a VIN number (plate)

- even if you have an old MG where it is just screwed on - a friend got in trouble with CHP over that on an old Morris Mini cuz he removed it to do a resto repaint (along with installing a chevy v8)

possible solution is to sell a chunk of body with attached VIN & title as a "resto project" - as this eBay'er is apparently doing

not much different than a few recent 911 & 356 rustbuckets that have gone across eBay - totally un-restorable piles of rusted junk in any sane budget scenario, - ($40K for a "numbers matching" 356 hulk recently, $10K for a burned out 911 hulk)

i once lived in a state where both VINs & engine numbers were on the title - it was legal to do a "body change" or an "engine change" under the oem VIN/engine ID - either way you had a "new car"

- it is an axiom in Mustang - Chevy circles that more "originals" are now on the road/auction-block than the factory ever made

i.e. - let the buyer take his chances if he drills out the rivets & attaches the plates to a donor body -

i know a couple 914-6 VINs that have re-appeared on non-oem bodies ('cuz i once owned the rusted hulks); and of several similar MG-Austin restos, including a Healey kit-car

goes on in every "collectible" old car venue

lots of money to be made, eh? (except on a '76 VIN 914 in CA!!)
