No, I haven't looked to see if the vin on door is currently registered to someone. How do you do this? Does my state DOT have a way to run the vin for all 50 states or is there some other way to find out?

Are you saying if the vin is registered there is no way to rebody this car with another vin and nothing can be done?

If the VIN tag is in use on another car & you apply for a state issued VIN, then they go after the loser that used another car's VIN on their car.

If that is the case, then 'his' car will be confiscated until it is all sorted out.

If you re-VIN the car, then the same thing could happen to you.
