That NY license plate (  SHELBY67 ) is registered with that 1968 VIN 8T02S149549
:o :o :o that sounds like a potential nightmare. I thought all cars were in a national data base if stolen.
The answer may be that the stolen car vs this registered car not showing up in a data base is perhaps the stolen car is listed with the complete Ford/Shelby VIN ( Ford VIN + 01842 ) not just the Ford VIN alone like this one.

I wish I had a nickel for every time I heard, "I would never try to pass it off as original"



This tag considered valuable by us, is considered a profiterole or not valid as a v.i.n. to any PD

In my opinion, its only a "novelty" until someone shows up with your VIN.




Now this v.i.n. tag from an alleged stolen possibly reattached to another vehicle  or maybe the same alleged stolen vehicle brought out years later,  will definetly win you a one way trip to the big house

What a mess.  It sounds like the black car has more legitimacy to have the stolen vin tags on it than the car it was stolen from.  At least from a title perspective. 

I'm not sure what year the white shelby was stolen, but if it was a long time ago, it is probably too late to do much about it.  That is, unless, you have a good friend in law enforcement that could pay a visit to the current vehicle owner and put a scare in them.  Or possibly hire a repo company to take possession of the black car due to it wearing stolen, original vin tags.

I think some are being way too casual about this example.  Isn't it obvious what the intent is?  Both the car and perpetrator need to be crushed!

Whoever had the original car stolen from them needs to go claim this one. I've seen where cars stolen 20 years ago were found and returned to the original owner. He may have to pay back the insurance. I wonder if the stolen 68 tag is covering the VIN of a stolen 67?
