I don't. This is commonly done to stolen BMWs etc. to hide the car's
original VIN. I don't think that our DMV would allow a cut and weld here,
but they do allow that a new VIN (from another car) can be punched in next
to the old one, if one were to replace the pan. I am not sure of the
procedure here. And if I know my country well enough, one probably has to
pay some tax for this.
