Just wondering how do you have a vin run when you don't have the whole vin? The hidden vin is only the last part of the number. Plus in the state of IL you need to have a title to sell a car, also if the secretary of state police see that the vin has been removed then they would impound the car, ask me how I know this. And before everyone jumps on me I am only talking about in IL, I do not know what the laws are in other states but I know for sure in IL. If I were you I would make sure I have the bill of sale from from who I bought the car and then you can have the Secretary of State Police inspect the car and issue an new vin for it. Again ask me how I know

. Not trying to be a d!ck just trying to NOT see someone else have to go through what I did. Good luck with the sale. Also where in Schaumburg? I'm over there all the time.
