Even if you cant take it to the junkyard, I hear that you can bring it to get crushed even without a vin or title. If it comes down to it and you can't get the old title, then you really dont have any options. A LOT of guys I know with jdm cars do this. Only thing to ever worry about (IMO) is if you ever decide to sell it.

crx's only have 3 vins. ive scraped them down to the bone many times in the past. there are only 3 vins.
that multiple vin ---- came about in the late 90's, and all thoes "secondary vins" are all just stickers that are easily peeled off.
remeber cars get their vins assigned to them when they are 98% complete at the factory. the firewall is etched, the dashbord vin is riveted in place and the door jamb sticker is affixed. after that minor details are completed on the car (including the windsheild) then the car is shipped out.
i think they say all hondas post 96 (or 98, not sure) has some thing like 27 vins on the car.
go ahead and do it, your car is like 99 years old, you will be fine.

Look at the pics, the car has plates on it. If it has plates then you can trace the owner and get a new title. It can be done it just takes a little time and you have to file the correct papers. Contact the WI DMV and they will tell you how to do it. Make sure you get all the documents from the junkyard so you can prove you did NOT steal it and you be fine.
