Question about selling a title w/ matching vin plate

Is it legal to sell a clean title and matching vin plate?

say to a 1985 Mazda Rx-7?

Here's me with my ten foot pole and I'm backing away...

Seriously, though, I've tried to buy such items (though not for an RX7) in the past and haven't been sucessful in finding anyone to supply.

Sell it as a "parts car with good title" After you sell it, you cant help it if some bad apple uses it for illegal purposes.

Lol,

I can see that ad: "1985 Mazda RX7 Parts car with good title. Very few parts remiaining. Will ship remaining parts in a standard envelope. Shipping included in asking price."

I'll second the "parts car with title" method of selling. A vin swap is quite illegal but I doubt the black market for "washed" 85 RX7s is strong enough to warrant jail time if you got caught.

If this were for a 98 Camry you'd be in trouble.

Technically I believe you are not allowed to remove the VIN plate, so yes it is "technically" illegal. If you were to still have it riveted to the part of the frame, and have that frame piece cut out, maybe, as long as you "removed" the body from around the frame part not the other way.

That being said, it is not uncommon in aviation and I have the plates and VIN of one of my old cars...

• weird "hit it with a hammer" double post -

• nothing to see here, move along -

I was always told it was illegal.

My coworker agreed once and he told me he sold his to a Canadian on an original style Bronco and it is all legal in Canada. Eh?

Despite what anyone may tell you it's a federal offense.

Would this be from a certain white GSL-SE?

nope.....it was silver base model.. rust had gotten the better of the wheel-wells (un-roadworthy in my opinion) and a blown apex seal or two.

It was the donor to the Locost I was working on....before we had Twins.

I have the vins and titles to all the cars I owned the broke up. At least the ones I really cared about. The ones I bought for parts, the vins and titles went to the yard with them
