<VV> Hidden VINs

[Harry Yarnell]

Most states require a mechanical inspection before you can register a used 
car. It's possible that when you registered your car, that law wasn't in 
effect, but was at a later date. There's a charge for this inspection.
Some states require this 'inspection' on an annual or sem-annual basis even 
when there's no title transfer!
