I thought the vin tag was on the lower cowl not the door!

To answer your question, no. Since vin tags, stamps, etc. can be created, we make sure that the body number matches the vin per our records. Someone attempting to recreate a Yenko would not know the correct body number. Also, in this case there is no title or title history for the Yenko vin.

So in this situation the car might have never been titled since it was a race car from day 1. Even with the hidden VIN's on the body and paperwork from Yenko, you wouldn't be able to certify it? That makes for a tough situation. I guess this car could really be a big question mark in some peoples eyes with the tags missing. What could be done to certify a car like this when you're 99.9% sure nobody restamped the body's hidden VINs?
