an engine and the swap for free? I've got news for you... there is probably someone wandering around with a 12 ga. shotgun looking for the punk that stole their engine!!
STAY AWAY, FAR FAR AWAY. Engines have their original car's vin stamped into them you know...

Re: engine paperwork?
The only way you can get in trouble for buying stolen property is if you know that it is stolen when you buy it. So if you think it's stolen, you might be safe, but if you KNOW it's stolen then you can get in trouble for buying stolen property. If it turns out that they are stolen and you did not know that, they can't take your shit away from you. The shop will be paying out the ass to replace all the stolen items.

well, my cousin lives in stockton, near sacramento, ca. and i live in southern california, i'll just be over there for a few days. so, if could get have the people do it and get out i should be fine. and, it's her friends that'll do it, and NOT a shop. what do you guys think? and how would i find out of the motors are stolen?

do you really want to know if they are stolen? kicker had a good point. pay $1 for the engine and the instal. dont ask where it came from or how it was gotten. then if it is stolen you had no idea

oh you are from Cali... sorry I missed that. thats too bad, around here you can do pretty much whatever you want to your car and get away with it. i could do a swap in my car and no one would even give a damn
