I have a question on the Dynacorn vert: wouldn't it make more financial sense to find a nice, dry original vert body and build on that? I'm sort of curious as to the resale value (if it came to that) of one of these Dynacorn bodies as there's no original VIN or trim tag. I definitely see the upside to buying one--no body work!! </div></div>

&quot;nice, dry original vert body&quot; that is the huge problem right there. To try and find even a shell that needs alot of work is getting to be a very challenging. Barrett Jackson and Mecum have made everyone believe they are sitting on gold regardless of what they have.

The other shop I use is in Washington and the DMV is pretty flexible there. We can have the car inspected and issued a new VIN and title rather than trying to move from one to the other. I am not sure I believe that it is appropriate in most any cases to move from one body to another. For us it will be an experiment, if it all works out I will be pleasantly surprised.

Yes, this is true. I suppose it is much harder to find a dry 'vert body out there than a hardtop.

Not sure if you checked with the Arizona resources here on the boards, but perhaps you might get lucky finding a nice shell.

Again, I definitely can see the upside to using a Dynacorn body. And the DMV must be able to assign a VIN to the body. Otherwise, unless they were used drag cars, those complete shells would be worthless.
