apron VIN stamp

Please record this conversation with the state DOT.  Assuming you could find someone who has an inkling of what your talking about, I would love to hear how that discussion goes.

QSS


I think it depends on what the question is.  If you want to know what the law says regarding a VIN, check with the state police (most have specific vehicle investigators) or an attorney who specializes in vehicle law (before a judge or jury has to decide 

If the question is what repairs or modifications can be made to a vehicle, and how that might that affect titling, registration, safety/emissions inspection, etc. then state police may be able to help, or DOT.  In my state, most of the info. is on the DOT website or can be found with a little online searching.

  It seems to me that this was covered in an earlier post. The VIN you cut out is not ending up on another body, but is going to be put back on the original car after repairs have been made. Check the search feature on this topic.
  I'm almost positive this topic has come up before. Good luck!

Bill Collins who is a well respected member here who has been involved with Shelby vehicles a long time and traded / bought many can probably chime in here with some good advice about what is suspect and what is not.
Maybe he sees this thread.

 The repair can be done in a manner that salvages as much of the original as possible and i my opinion  keeping vin  on the original car should not be an issue. document the process before during and after .

Again, just do not remove, alter, deface or modify the VIN. Obey any local, Federal, state statutes. The job can be done properly without violating anything - by the right shop or the right guy. Not saying it will be cheap or easy.
