It might be worth it?
That's depends on how dodge you are.
As I say the paperwork is worthless, as the number belongs to the chassis. NOT the piece of paper.
BUT if you are the type who dont mind doing something dodgy? You all already now how to do it. Take a long wheel base chassis, worth perhaps £400 with no V5. shorten it. Stamp the 1923 number on it. And run to the dvla to register it.
Even if you only get an age related. What's it worth.
To those who dont know the differences on the various chassis, probably £2,500 for the chance to build an early car.
Surely if that's what you do, it's worth £450.00
MY WORDS OF WARNING, the law still hasn't changed on altering vin numbers. Modern or old. It's a maximum penalty of £2,000 and 3 years at her majestys pleasure.
And you might knacker the dvla up for us all AGAIN.
Tony.
Ps, keep an eye out in the future, there are 4 chassis coming up in a well known northern auction. 3 long 1 short. All without paperwork. The V5s are being sold separate. I'm sure they will be made known on the forum in time. BEWARE.
