Looks like someone will pick it up quick!
This guy seems to sell a lot of project cars and parts on ebay

Should be able to re-coup your money just in parts.

 

[Avalanche]

If the dash pad was changed, then he probably dosent have a ttile for the car either. Sounds like a parts car. Still a good price though

No title and no VIN tag? What’s going on here?

He was going to take the highest offer on 11-27-19 and it’s still for sale now? Games people play.

Do not know much about this business.
One Man's Garage; owner seems to pick up all brands of cars and tries to turn a quick profit.
One good thing about the NJ DMV; you can get a lost title with documentation.
Cars are checked out by State Police to make sure the vehicle was not reported stolen. You can get a title with some leg work.
A fair number of people responded on Facebook. He also sells on ebay.
At the price; someone will pick it up for at the least, parts IMO

He says the V code vin tag is not flagged.
He's been offered 1K for the vin tag unseen.
I've asked for the full vin so I can post it up and maybe someone can be reunited with their vin tag.
I'm always looking for my original V code vin tag.

 

[R4Sedan]

Something sounds weird.

 

[budascuda]

I can't understand it, if it's not flagged then, can't somebody apply for registration somehow?, It will be a shame to loose a cuda to a pile of parts, damn shame.

 

[R4Sedan]

If its an H code car and now has a V code vin. Then It shouldn't be saved. Some idiot lost the vin. It would have to get a State vin.

 

[Cuda Hunter]

no reason to not save it just because of a lost vin. Quite simple to get a new federal vin tag. Some states will even match the original vin number.
I don't think anything is fishy, it's just a really rusty cuda.
Even if it's flagged, that only holds so much weight. It's the feds that truly check a car for being a fraud. vin wise anyway.

That vin tag needs to be reunited with it's body though.

 

[340challconvert]

If life were perfect, the V code vin would go to the current owner and the H code cuda would get restored!
