"Original"-- Technical Questions, Answers, Observations / Question about what number to use as VIN in Calif

« on: November 24, 2020, 10:33:34 AM »

I just sold my 3B, and the buyer raised a question about the title and I need help from people that know. The title has a number starting with 4J and a few digits, and I never thought about it, DMV didn't care. But, the buyer noticed that is not the number on the firewall, it's the 454GB2 and a serial number. He's worried  that the VIN on the title is wrong. We are assuming they originally used the number on the original engine as the vin for the vehicle. However, the number on the current engine is different - so I am assuming that the engine was replaced.

The buyer is worried the title is wrong. So, do we need to go through the process to get the vin on the title changed to the 454GB2 number? Has anyone ever changed a vin? It says verification is required. At DMV? At CHP?

I'm going a different direction and my engine is for sale - complete. It's been recently fuel injected using a kit from Hamilton fuel injection with modified Omix distributor for full timing control. Starts easy, runs like a top. I have video of it running for anyone wanting it. I have no history on the motor, don't even know if it's original to the rig. Comes with engine, electronic dizzy, ECM, and even the gas tank and fuel pump if you want.
