Some folks here have data on the methods used to affix v.i.n. tags on 
fenders  which _SHOULD_ assure the diligent Motor Vehicle folks that the 
tags are real.  Of course, the fact that lots of the MV folks are not as 
old as our vehicles may enter into the deal.  That, and I would guess 
the manufacturers started out with little if any Federal "guidance" as 
to the format for the ID tags can easily result in a bit of confusion on 
the part of "Officialdumb".

For what it's worth, two early A bodies in my posession and a third I 
found on the internet have their VIN tags secured with phillips headed 
sheet metal screws.  In all cases, I have no reason to believe that the 
vcehicles have had tags swapped, because the tags and the fenders they 
are screwed to have matching rust and paint patterns.  I suppose those 
_could_ be faked by someone with the correct materials and lots of time.
That hardly seems likely on Early 60's Dodge Dart 170, 270, and GTs that 
have not even been restored.

Of course, the disconnect is that reasonable folks expect the public 
"servants" to act with a bit of what we laughingly call "common sense".
