I was a bystander (fortunately!) in a situation where a guy bought a car in CO, registered it in IA, and 35 years later, after he sold it out of state, the new owner in WA discovered the VIN on the title was for a different car.
Cool heads prevailed, the buyer's State Trooper friend walked him through a search and inspection which lead to a clean title issued using the cars original VIN. All Good, it can be done!
This was a NOM running driving car with original tags intact. - Bill W
