Question

Can i change the VIN body number when rebuilding a vehicle? Is it legal to change the VIN body number?

Answer 1

no.no it not leagal.but! spcns(special construction)can get its own new VIN.check with you local DMV .

Answer 2

Only the state, usually through the highway patrol or state troopers, can assign a new VIN plate.

Answer 3

In my jurisdiction, and i believe in most if not all others, this is illegal. VIN stays with the body/frame, even if you change other components.  Besides, how are you going to change it?  It's stamped into the metal on the door post and other locations on most vehicles.

Answer 4

No. The VIN is on the title and the registration. Should you get stopped and checked, you would have serious problems.
