Hey Mikey! By the time you and I finish with ours we'll probably have to join the UAW, let alone fuss over the vin! 
There are guys in the US building "new" 57 Chevy's where only a section of the cowl/firewall is original and I believe they're registering them as oem, rebuilt cars. I think Challenger 6pack hit the nail on the head. There were only so many made and when it comes to the uber-bucks cars, a knowledgeable buyer won't have to worry. 
Hey Ian! Either that, or surrender to the men with the straight jackets! There are some "New" '67 Camaros around also. Same with early Mustangs.
I'm not worried about it either way. There are only so many VIN tags out there. Most people will not buy a new body for a 318 car. So how many "unused" R/T VIN's are out there? Maybe a few hundred. If the cars are like the restoration parts you will be able to spot one. I see this as more of a nitch for a "new" car to be created with a state VIN. These cars can be modified into Pro Touring or anything an owner wants. Look at it as a steel kit car. The kit cars have not hurt the value of A/C Cobras.
Right on the money. Not only were there only so many vins, there are only so many cars with original 40 yo sheetmetal. It is quite easy to tell the difference. This ability to buy a complete body can only open our hobby to countless others who may be shy when it comes to rust and bent metal. Many more products can become available from aftermarket sources to support this expansion of the hobby, for both the guys building a '70 - '74, or someone building a '12 - ? E- Body. A win win combination!
Remember how difficult it was to build one 10 or 20 years ago?
