Project Sketchy Deal
Here is the Show Me "Sketchy Deal" project thread.
There is a crazy story to follow soon. Thinking I will lower the truck and maybe smoothies. |

Re: Project Sketchy Deal
Pretty cool truck, I have always been a fan of traditional flames over black. She'll look sweet with an altitude adjustment!

Re: Project Sketchy Deal
O.K. so I typed my story out twice now...its a long story and both times by the time I finished typing and hit post quick reply I am logged out for some reason.Tried once on the lap top and once on the Ipad. Probably just as well because the plot of the storyhas thickened.
Here is the very short and condenced version. I buy a truck and match the title number to the vin number on the door jamb vin plate. However I did not look at the numbers on the frame. The Kansas Vin Inspecter/Trooper pulls the vin plate and tells me its not solen and I can file for a Quiet Title. I called a lawyer today and they can fix it for me for $1100. Not sure which way to go. I really don't really want to part it out on C.L. to recoop my loss but I may have to. |

Re: Project Sketchy Deal
That's crazy Scott.
To bad you don't live in MO... sounds like quite the process over in KS to register.

It would still need to be inspected and the Kansas State Trooper removed the vin plate from the truck. Quiet Title is the only legal way for me to register it. Posted via Mobile Device |

Re: Project Sketchy Deal
Maybe you could find a cheap short wheel base truck and swap everything over???

Re: Project Sketchy Deal
I think will pose the question of this issue in the general discussion.

Re: Project Sketchy Deal
So someone did a frame swap then? Is the frame listed as stolen? Looks like a cool truck....hope you can keep it...but...$1100 that's a bitter pill to swallow...

Re: Project Sketchy Deal
too bad you don't have the vin plate still, just emissions in az, and then "sell" it to a friend for a day, then sell it back as a az title.
they care nothing about frame swaps out here, just engine and tag match

Re: Project Sketchy Deal
Never heard of a "quiet title" but that stinks that they pulled your vin tag because the frame has been swapped. I had to drive my clunker to the tag office because it was an out of state sale and a "title 42" maybe that is similar?? They just looked at the vin plate on the door jamb and the mileage on my gauge cluster which was not installed. I had to show them where the Vin plate was .. They dont bother with frame Vin just the cab/body Vin in Oklahoma. I hope you get this sorted out and get to enjoy the truck. I really wish all 50 states would get on the same page with title work on thses old trucks, and with all the silly business perhaps maybe a required Vin inspection prior to selling so this crap doesn't happen. Must be a green conspiracy to melt down our classics and turn them into Prius-es.
