So I was talking to my guy that dose e tests and apparently by next year if the vin of the engine doesn’t Match the body of the car they have to report it and your car gets seized and destroyed. Can anyone confirm this because if this is true I guess we are all screwed. Even the big bad mussel boys. They want to crack down on engine swaps and modded cars he said. That would just go to show the new power house that’s coming in and taking control of all of us and are freedom of rights away from us. Time to stop with the pussy protests of signs they just laugh at us. Replace the signs with full auto aks and then change will happen. ---

@bing ? I don’t see how they can size your property and destroy it over a mismatched vin. Motors blow all the time and get fresh swaps. But how knows. :gotme: ---

Yup, it’s true. They are going to destroy your car because the vin number doesn’t match the engine. Sounds legit. ---

this aint happening. there are plenty of legit reasons why your engine wouldnt match the VIN. if you’re caught with an engine that was stolen that is a different thing entirely. ---

False. A law like that would kill the automotive industry. It would basically make any kind of major repair on a vehicle impossible and cause and major motor repair to total out the vehicle. We’d be buried in a sea of cars with blown motors in a matter of no time and half the country’s populous would be without cars because a $1500 used motor is a lot less cheaper than a brand new car. I can however see them requiring cars to have motors that were only available in that vehicles model generation installed in them across the board. Such as no LS7 in a 98-02 Trans am. ---

This post is ridiculous if you think about it for 3 seconds. I mean, what would us rotary owners do? We’d never be able to drive our cars. Actually, we can’t drive our cars half the time anyways. ---

I think hot rod swaps go up to either 1999 or 2003 in ontario so, this possible siezure would be for only more recent cars past the cut off year for hot rod I think. if this law is in the making, guys and gals had better register even their old engine swapped cars just to be safe . it only takes a week or so to register your car as a hot rod and is well worth it [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/new-law-coming-next-year/271223.md?page=2)
