Dirty ebayer selling VIN tag, etc

Yes it is not that way here in Pa. A out of state car does not need a inspection to get a title. Just a tracing of the vin. And a old registration. Owner doesn't have to be present.

Another words if I take my neighbors car and transfer it to another state with the vin only. I can bring it back to Pa. and its mine.

My 69 Corronet R/T was taken like this in 73 . I see it and I called the Police and there is nothing I can do. The new title supersedes the old. After 7 years the theft report no longer exists. If you don't keep updating it. So now my car belongs to a old friend. If I find the car on the road I will run it over with my Diesel. Then give my insurance my title which I still have. Then see what happens.

Wow, PA is screwed up. A stolen car stays in the records for a lot longer than that (maybe for ever). They recently recovered one the was stolen about 30 years ago and reunited it with its original owner.

A VIN inspection has to be done here on any car coming in from out of state. If it is just a normal transfer the tag agency can do it. If it is an built/assembled car (even if everything is in state) built by using more than one car then law enforcement has to do it. If it was just a core support change from being damaged you don't have to do anything. There is nothing done for a motor change out here.
