"it was not cut out I drilled the rivets out so I could Blast and clean the
metal behind it then I poprevet it to a piece of scrap metal so I could polish
it and not bend it they sale the new rivets to put it back"

In most states in the Northeast and in california a newly riveted VIN tag is a red flag to the inspector. Those rivets are a special rivet not an ordinary pop rivet. When they do not look right in CA they check the VIN on the frame and it had better match. If it does not a NATIONWIDE stolen search enquiry is started (and oh yeah, they impound the vehicle on the spot). If it comes back stolen you forfeit the vehicle and are charged with a very long list of 3rd class felonies. Don't walk away from that truck. Run as fast as you can.

The plate matches the VIN on the Frame and he has a title to match, i dont see the problem? Supposibly they sell the original rivets ?
