Yeah, that was another thing that a few people had to deal with.

Humorous little sidenote to my buddy *finally* managing to get his titled. The state "Assigned" a VIN number to the car. This VIN had to be engraved into the door jamb, which was made of fiberglass (at least on "our" design). It could NOT be engraved into a metal plate that fastened to the jamb, but directly engraved into the "body".
Of course, as anyone knows, filling this in on a FG body is extremely easy. On the other hand, it simplified the process when he crashed the car and made a new body for it. Just engraved the same number into the new body, and the DMV was never any wiser......
