So the front portion of the chassis with the VIN intact was stolen and used as the basis to construct an entirely new car without using any part of that original chassis?
And then I guess after it was realized that the front portion of the original chassis was stolen it was returned to Hasselrig who had a title to the car?
I am surprised that when the new chassis was built they did not try to use some part of the original chassis in the new chassis, like the part that had the serial number stamped in it. I am also surprised that the remains of the original chassis were not destroyed to get rid of it at the time the new chassis was made.
