Possible that at some point when the previous owner began working on it that it may not have had a title so CA DMV assigned a new number? Anyone think of another reason why the VIN doesn't match. I'd have to remove some paint but I can clearly see where the number is stamped on the frame so wonder why they didn't use that number. Hmmm
Educate me my friends. Thanks in advance.

You've always got to remember that VEHICLE THEFT can be a reason. You need to get the discrepancy straightened out for several reasons, like difficult to sell, won't be covered by insurance if involved in a claim, or even for legal ID purposes with your state.
