I agree. Fat fingered "A-833".

Four on the tree? Do you have any documentation on that?

Floor in this car

Unlike most Mopar restorers , I think If a rebody will save a rare car it is ok as long as you make it known to all. No monkey biz!

If it's a rebody, the only thing 'saved' from a rare car is the VIN plate, not the car itself.

Yup, but it's the VIN tag that made that car special.

It's moving the VIN tag from one car to another and then selling the car that will get someone a special cell.

"it has been fully restored from the ground up using new sheet metal, including a replacement unibody."
Maybe we can get together and bake a cake for the guy with a hack saw in it?

Irregardless of whether it's a replacement unibody, a donor car, or whatever, the law clearly states that swapping VIN's is illegal. Even buying the car knowing it's got a swapped VIN is a felony:



(3) He knowingly possesses a vehicle, or part of a vehicle to which by law or regulation must be attached a vehicle identification number, either (a) with a vehicle identification number label, sticker, or plate which was not affixed by the manufacturer in accordance with 49 U.S.C. section 32101, et seq. or regulations promulgated thereunder, or in accordance with the provisions of the vehicle and traffic law or regulations promulgated thereunder, or (b) on which is affixed, stamped or embossed a vehicle identification number which was not affixed, stamped or embossed by the manufacturer, or in accordance with 49 U.S.C. section 32101, et seq. or regulations promulgated thereunder or in accordance with the provisions of the vehicle and traffic law or regulations promulgated thereunder.
