The door number shouldn't match the engine. I don't think there was a frame number, but I got my 53 registered using the number on the door serial plate. DMV just needs a number that is currently not in use. Id contact a street rod shop or try to find a DMV person that works for used car lots, these people deal with these issues every day and know the ropes.
