Reply to "VIN location 356"

I totally agree with Stan.  The inspector told you what he wants to see ::> A permanently stamped tag attached/riveted to your car with the same number as your existing title.  That's it.  No fancy etched or silk screened trophy store plate, just a length of 1/2" wide aluminum strip with numbers stamped onto it, preferably mounted in the driver's door jamb (just like the VIN strip under the windshield on your daily driver).

If you want to see a CMC tag for one of the "Speedster Californian" cars, here's mine in my door jamb, along with my Massachusetts issued VIN.  My body kit order number with CMC was "SC 1208" and I presented that paperwork to the inspector to show a purchase invoice which was all he wanted to see.   Absolutely no one has ever been interested in seeing that CMC plate except me (and now you!) but I had already mounted it after Wolfgang put the fear of the DMV in me and even they didn't care about it, but there you go.

I still needed to show the inspector the VW VIN on the top of the tunnel, only because that was on the original title before I converted everything to a Porsche Replica, and a new title, a few years back (and he ran a quick check on that old VIN to insure that the car hadn't been stolen).  If your title shows an S XXXX number, that's what your tag should say - Simple as that.
