Taking a VIN from one car and putting it on another is a good way to land yourself in prison.
The laws you are talking about are for mass production, in most states you can build your own car with far less rules. How do you think they make a kit car, most of them are not safety tested or make a car out of a 1933 2 seater bucket w/ a 700 hp engine?
