Vin switch from rusty to trusty?

Myself and others, I would guess, would assume the VIN swap was to A:cover up a stolen car. B: pass off a non pedigreed car as a desirable Something it is not. the /6 car has a vin, use it. This being said, there seems to me to be a lot of "formula S" cudas out there. I wonder how many were built that way?

And to you... my friend wasn't looking to make money on a stolen car. There are such a thing as good roller cars. He just wants to be able to drive it to the track not trailer it. Any way, moving on. Apparently too many people on this forum have cob stuck up their asses.
