I had a problem registering my 37 truck after approximately 20 years. It was originally registered on the engine number and that engine had been replaced. That previous engine number did not match my Vin tag. I contacted a Vin verification company that’s contracted with California DMV and explain my situation to the gentleman. He came out to my house and looked at my truck and all my paperwork from when I purchased in 2001. He was able to get the VIN changed from the original registration to the Vin tag on the cowl of my truck. The gentleman I contacted is very knowledgeable and reasonable. He filled out the proper forms, I took them to my local DMV office and was in and out in approximately five minutes with the Vin change to the Vin tag on the cowl. My truck is now legally registered in California and insured and I’m very happy. I will send you a PM with his contact information.
