partial frame VIN/Cab VIN don't match question

inspector no-showed... he says he'll call today one way or the other if he can/can't make it. if not today, it'll have to be next week, i have VA appointments. the inspector is a Veteran as well, he seems pretty cool

DMV inspector came yesterday, he affixed the 2 VIN tags to my truck... they are made of the same stuff as the month/year stickers on a license plate... just stickers with the new NC assigned VIN

one in the door jamb, the other near the master cylinder.

next step, i have to get it bonded for 1 1/2 times the estimated tax value, and then go apply for the new title... bonds start at 100, not sure what the estimated tax value is...

and that's it... process was pretty straight forward, the inspectors were both really cool about everything, we talked about other stuff more than about my truck, hope this helps!

What is the reason for needing to be Bonded?

I went trough a similar situation. Here's the trooper installing a new vin on "project sketchy deal". It's always best to do things the legal way. Don't listen to any bonehead that try's to tell you to circumvent the law.
It's also been my experience that all the troopers and police that inspect my vehicles have been really cool. Not so much with the all folks I've bought trucks . My current truck came from Iowa. To this day I have not looked at the vin. I know the previous owner.
