Food for thought, If the VIN tag is missing and the car was parted out somewhere in time, There MAY BE another car out there with the VIN tag and registered to some one already !

Yes, that thought has already crossed my mind. I have someone that can check that out for me. In the meantime it will set in the back yard collecting dust like it has since 2005.

What was the seller's story about the car? Your saying this car was registered in early 2000 and was roadworthy and then was parted out?

I bought 2 Barracudas a few months back , one had a new title in the sellers name, but they didn't check the VIN #s on the new title . They didn't match by 1 # off, Didn't matter since it was just a parts car and then scrapped. A couple years back ROY R bought a Duster here in FL and went to transfer the title and it was already registered in New York State.

The title states it was registered from August 2005 -2006. just checked with Been Verified and according to them it is a 1 owner car with dates that match the title. 2006. I'll try to get a hold of the owner and get more info. My son picked the car up for me and probably didn't ask all of the questions that i would have. I'm currently in a wheelchair after tearing my quadracepts completely from my knee cap.

The original owner Is Mike G. Same as the name on the title. He was also in Calimesa and is 85 years old and now lives in Utah.. If he is still alive. This car has only been registered to him and is not the same guy that i bought it from.. although he and Bob are both about the same age. Interesting info. I will have the history checked out further by my friend who works at the MVD. Thank You everyone for all of your input. Leaving the building for now.

I'm thinking the title is not legit or the State of California don't know there *** from a hole in the ground and issues a title with the numbers found on the body. The stamped numbers are the Shipping Order Number found on the Fender Tag and Broadcast Sheet, they DO NOT MATCH THE VIN! Here is another example of SO#'s on a 1968. The VIN tag is missing as well as the fender tag because the "VIN" numbers on the title are wrong...

Yes title has wrong vin BS27P8B198220
That tells me this title was made up (2005?) after the dash VIN was missing and there was nothing in system for it nor person that took it to DMV had any past paperwork on it. Like no pink slip.

I don’t see dual exhaust cutouts in the rear valance. Would need to see pictures of underside exhaust of floor pan behind rear seat
