After looking at those comments, I'm wondering about this: What is the 'spirit' behind these examples. It seems that these laws were written to prevent fraud, so the question comes up to me, is the intent to commit fraud, or is the intent to preserve a rare car by 'grafting' the heart onto a willing donor? I would think that if someone does the latter, they should get a state document or title identifying what has been done to prevent any problems. Perhaps this would be a salvage type title. IMHO, sadly many laws are written to blanket these areas because many times cars are redone to fraudulently deceive. I remember years ago visiting the Oriental Institute Museum on the U of Chicago campus, & seeing the loaded dice from ancient Egypt. As is being revealed every day in the news, cheating & fraud seems to be the chosen course for a good number. Thankfully most of the automotive hobby is filled with great people.
