Swithching vins is illegal but the repro body is considered a replacement part and therfore you could use it. And yes I do have the hidden vin, which doesn't really matter since they repro that now, and this one is garbage. So if you replace the cowl and you don't have the hidden Vin is it illegle?
Rebodying a car can be more difficult than you may think. A number of people (Boyd C, UNIQUE Performance, W2W powertrain) got nailed on it. They call it the "Ship of Theseus" fraud. I know a guy who had to register himself as an auto manufacturer in PA to get his car through.
