Strickly speaking, that is a Federal offense. Transfering the title
(vin plate) from one frame (or car) to another is a big no-no. Because
the vin tags are on the body you could reframe the car and repair the
body. Since there is no record of the frame #'s or engine #'s I guess
you could swap them and that would be OK. IMHO legaly the car is the
vin tag and the vin tag is on the fiberglass body (and on the dash
pad). My guess is that it was an insurance total and they left the car
there for the storage. It was cheaper for the insurance co. to do that
than pay to remove it and junk it.
