Re: Odd VIN
I would want this straightened out before I completed the sale.
California DMV wants the VIN inspected if the car has an out of state title.
Within the state, there is only a transfer of title and no inspection.
I have been told that OKLAHOMA wants to see a frame number and I think this is also true for other states.
Obviously, the number you are dealing with is not a Ford issued VIN.
If it is an up to date California title, no inspection is required to transfer within California however, I would want to see the frame number and want the paperwork to reflect that number because there may be a problem if the car is later sold out of state and I would not want to have to deal with that.
It is the sellers responsibility to get the paperwork in order.
