You say you are in PA. You should reach out to MrMustang (Bill). He has experience getting Cobra replicas registered in PA and NJ in the past. If I recall from Bill, PA may disregard existing VIN numbers and assign a PA VIN. I think PA that only a small subset of Inspection stations are qualified to inspect Cobra replicas for registration.

Oh, I see you already have a Backdraft and if you live in PA, you must be familiar with how PA works. Every state is different, I am not even sure why you are worrying about Virginia if you are in PA. Are you thinking about later resale?
