this came up on the 60-66 GMC site
something to chk out


Under 18USC511 (Title 18, United States Code, Part I, Chapter 25) the
owner or authorized agent of the owner is allowed ...to remove,
obliterate, tamper with or alter the decal or device...

It is only illegal if the intent is to steal the vehicle, or if the
person removing, etc, the identification knows the vehicle is stolen.

State codes may vary, but Federally is it not a crime to remove and
replace the VIN.
