That's a good answer, Kim. Didn't think of it that way. But, since it does have a title matching the dash vin I might, could, maybe, sorta own it. Isn't posession 9/10th's of the law? I'll try going thru local law inforcement & see what they have to say.

Jude That's like a being a little bit pregant, you either is or you isn't. That title belongs to another car. If you dont have a title to the hidden VINs you dont own it. Do yourself a favor run from it.!!!!!

No problem fellas...sorry to be the troublemaker. .

Jude, it's a good thing you've checked the hidden Vins! .
I take it the seller is aware now...was he before? .
Sounds like you'd better run the hidden Vin...actually both Vins before plunking down any dough! .
How long has the seller had the car and what transfer date is on the title that matches the tags? .
And how far back of a racing history is known...are you able to tell us what year the car is yet? .

One guy has a car with the hidden vin, but not his original vin tag, but rather a State issued replacement vin. Another guy has his vin tag on another car, and a valid title. Who owns what?

It may be but that dont make it right!!! As I have always said RIGHT or WRONG has nothing to do with it. It's who has the better lawyer.
