Sorry to semi-hijack the post but...

They have simply found a novel way to use an existing law which is on the books in every state and federal jurisdiction. Word to the unwise: this is the same law that allows the police to crush any car with a VIN tag on it that was originally on another car, i.e. a rebody "restoration." I have been telling people for years that it is illegal to remove, sell, alter a VIN tag, or put one on a car it did not originally come from the factory with. There are no exceptions to the rule, none. So saying you are saving the only 1965 Z16 Chevelle 396 ragtop (as a hypothetical example) because it was too rusted to salvage, so you put its VIN on a rust free 6 cyl ragtop body, would mean the car can be seized and crushed.
