So I picked up this complete z6, tranny, wiring harness, virgin p28, axles and some other random ---- for $400 at some shop that looked sketchy as hell. I dont want to stick a bunch of money in this to get pulled over and find out its stolen and get it taken away, so is there any way to look up to see if this thing is hot? I contemplated just calling the police but dont want to be out my $400 and a motor, this thing is mint and I've been looking for one forever. If nobody know's I think I'm calling the cop shop on monday. Obviously a carfax would tell me but is there any way to find out the vin # from the numbers stamped on the block?

Dealership wont do that

I cant see cops caring about a Z6 swap

dont be such a ------- -----, cops arent going to check ---- like that

yeah but I always get fucked like that, It depends where you drive. You're right tho i'll just say screw it, id rather not know anyway.

it's legal if you don't know or think its stolen, so don't know or think it :1

if you dont live in california dont worry about it. But seriously, who steals z6s? I see more people giving them away then stealing them

when was the last time you got pulled over and the cop made you pop your hood, and checked the vin number on your motor

Not really. They will still take the motor/car even if you are unaware that it is stolen. And no they will not be compensating you for the loss. It is the buyers responsibility to know.

call the non emergency police number, and ask them. in seattle it's 206.296.3311. tell them it's a non-emergency, and explain your situation. they will run the vin and tell you what the story is.

my mom works as a dispatcher in the king county sherriffs dept, so this is firsthand knowledge. i've used it myself.
