Not true where I live. It is about full disclosure (which this guy has
done). Mike is right. Cars have massive work done like this all the time
and they get them registered or re-registerd. If a guy welds two cars
together and brings both tags to the DMV I and explained the situation, I
would bet that he would get it registered with whichever tag he desired. I
know he would in Utah. I built a replica cobra and California let me
register it as a 1965 shelby cobra. They simply used a number that was
stamped into the tube frame (not a CSX number). My Tiger had the tag
destroyed in a fire in Oregon. Oregon took too long to get the owner a new
tag so he went to Alabama via the mail. They registered it with a new
number and sent him plates and a new title. I bought the car and took it to
Utah and registered it with the original tag number. It took me about 10
minutes. I still have the Alabama license plates. Some of you people are
giving the state employees WAAAAAAAYYYYYYY to much credit. I have never
heard a FIRST person account of someone that had their car confiscated,
crushed, burned or even their tires peed on. It has always been a "friend"
or a "friend of a friend". I would love to hear a story from the actual
owner of a car where this happened. If it has happened to someone on this
list please share the story.
Can you imagine the litigation from someone that had their Ferrari
confiscated or crushed because the tag was removed during a full
restoration? It would NEVER happen.
Just some random thoughts from a guy that occasionally sees black
helicopters hovering over his house.

Nothing wrong if you plan to use the car for "off-road use" only. In
most states if the DMV knows you have removed and/or swapped the tag, they
either will not register the car or will confiscate it.
