I can see this is a bag of worms and I am glad that I am not going to be one that will be caught up in it.

This has the potential for disaster as each state has a different way to look at this. I know if you remove a Vin # around here you better not get caught putting it on something else. Even if it is the original car it came off of. You could get a couple of years to study your mistake courtesy of the state.

The is no difinative fed law that will allow it to be done on a complete body. The problem with Fed law is each person/state can intertept it the way that fits thier need best.

What will you do if when you replace the entire body you become liable for EPA, crash tests, smog, and all the other crappy rules that the goverment imposes on the new car builders.

This is not just a "Repair Part" but a entire safety structure of a auto and in essense it will wind up a "NEW AUTO"!!!! Then what if the feds deem it needs all the Goverment crap including crash testing and all that sorta crap. Big $$$$$$$ I would hate to have that much tied up in a car and have that come back to haunt me 5/10 years down the line. If you sold it and had already spent the money, then where would you be?
