The State of Colorado does the same. If all the boxes on the inspection form don’t fit the expected parameters. DR2698 State issued VIN. The non running vehicles automatically end up with a Salvage title. Number change vehicles never see the road again. Don’t worry at least you get to go to court and explain how it happened.

I can tell you that I didn’t bid because of the title/bond/vin issue.

It likely helped. Large American mid century beasts do far better in red or black. White is a liability. Only us purists care about the proper color. My guess is the buyer was not one of us.

I’m not sure if the color change from White to Resale Red helped or hurt its cause, financially speaking.

Yes, as a warning to everybody. If you own a car that is perfect, but the restorer riveted the vin on, Arizona is going to make you get a state issued vin.
Aside from the few comments made the other day, the car was a righteous car clearly the recipient of a very high dollar frame off restoration. I think had it not had to be re vinned, it would've sold for a lot more money. Heartbreaking.

Gloria –
The VIN was listed in the auction summary. But apparently it was changed to an Arizona VIN because the original VIN tag was pop riveted on. In Noel’s photo of the description, it lists the VIN as M591100157.

Ron,
What's the VIN. It isn't shown in this string. I only go by VINs and want to make note of the sale price.
Thanks.

A couple of additional observations: The mirrors are 1961 variety. Also the nylon tip on the MirrorMatic on-off switch is missing. Were 1959 413s originally black ?
If you look at the description on the windshield in IMG_1751, there is a CYA disclaimer at the bottom that says basically, don’t make any assumptions about the car and don’t assume that anything in the seller’s description is correct.

Ron is correct in that we list this E convertible as a white car.
The B-J marketing card describes the color as Matador Red which, as we know, was Chrysler's 1958 red and claims it was the factory color. Radiant Red was Chrysler's 1959 300-E red. Also, a minor point that the hubcap centers on this E are painted red, rather than black.
Attached are a couple photos my friend texted me yesterday.
