if its rivited in the jam area it was assigned a special number from the state patrol after an inspection..ie got stolen and dash was damaged.. self assembled cars have the same thing assigned to them..they get inspected and since it was built from scratch it will need a number to move forward with the lisenceing and insurance..

Wouldn't that result in a salvage title though?

nope completely different... salvage will still have your standard vin (most of the time unless the repair shop forgets to swap it over on a dash replacement) and the the replacement parts would be inspected with receipts to support the replacement parts but not a "how well and safe the vehicle was repaired" inspection..

if i have a title for a 69 vw and build a buggy.i have a title with a vin but the vin plate is missing and i get it inspected they will issue a new vin as a replacement to attach to the vehicle as a legal form of identification attached to the vehicle usually in a specified location.

as far as your rig tony im not sure if "carfax"will have anything because it only has what is "reported to carfax" and has been proven to be a joke imo.

car dealers are usually set up with carfax and give free reports if you know of anyone it might be a place to try ?
