For those who are still following this. I did get an email back from the builder assuring me the VIN is still there and intact. He's going to send me a pic today to show me. Anyhow, guess the project is still on then. I'll keep y'all updated

Yeah man...was NOT a good weekend for me. Just glad to know everything is good cause I'm looking forward to the end result. I told him he can take all the time he needs as long as it's done by April so I'm not sure how often I'll have updates. He claims he wants to go ahead and knocked it out asap. There will be some holdups for decision making such as alterations to the tank/rear fender, deciding certain aspects of the springer and of course the paint.

Negative. I talked to Vince last week and he said they're mocking up tank ideas and that's where they stand. No more work has been done to it.

Well, I finally got some new pics so I figured I'd share them. The tank is being worked on now. It's still very rough and only one side is done but it gives you an idea.
