putting a car thru a vic test to get it re-registered is only to get a new reg number applied to the car, if the car was wrote off and needs to go thru a vic test it no longer has a registered reg number plate hence why it needs to go thru a vic test, once its thru the test the logbook will still have the same chassis number as it did when it came from the factory, you cant ever change the chassis code of a car as that holds all the cars history, stolen, crashed etc etc. the car can be re-registered with a new reg number but not chassis number.
The car does not get re registered it merely has its identity checked.#
Hence the title
Vehicle Identity Check
I also know for a fact that a load of cat b cars have been registered using same method.
If I offer a log book matching tags and the shell its easy and legal.
No offence intended either its just i have seen it done loads of times, as previosuly stated by another it is easier to use original shell/id etc but there is always a way as long as it is obvious it is not done to cover up something dodgy.
What about all the reshelled cars out there
If i sold a damaged car needing shelling and he used his shell it is same difference
Not all swaps/ re shells / repaired cars are dodgy you know
again no offence intended

are some people talking about selling shells with their genuine id papers, if so that is different to giving a car a new chassis number, even if that doesnt make sense as the only thing tieing the car to the papers is the shell when everything else can be changed. maybe i havent tread the whole thread correctly but i think that buying a shell and the matching papers is fine (i did it when i broke my saloon) but buying papers and chassis plates to renumber an exisiting car is illegal, the guy who bought my shell and id papers was going to be using the numbers for the shell he bought off me ( at least thats what he told me anyway as he was keen to take the number plates too to save him getting new ones made)
