Incorrect dash vin tag

FWIW, NYS will issue a new VIN with a tag that is riveted in the door jamb. I've seen several cars like this, including a friend's GTX that was stolen and recovered minus the VIN plate.

I'm not sure of the procedure other than I know the car will have to be inspected at one of their places and, of course, nothing can come back stolen or part of a insurance fraud. You'll need to have al your ducks in a row if you go this route.

That was Tim’s car but he was lucky because he had the police records to confirm the VIN so he was able to get a legit VIN plate made for the car. I actually ran across his car for sale in Charlotte a few years ago. He would have never pursued getting the new correct VIN tag had I not challenged him to prove it was really a GTX.
