Where did the VIN Check section go?
I'm in need of a VIN check and I was wondering where that section went. I found it in search but I can't post to it. Anyone know what's going on or where I can get a vin checked? Thanks!

The problem is that the biggest VIN check company (rhymes with Bart Tax) out there has announced open war on any board allowing members to use their service for anything but the owner of the Bart Tax subscription.

They started going after members and any board/Forum that allowed someone (person #1) to post up for a VIN check and someone (person #2) with a unlimited Bart Tax account to run the VIN for the first person.

So to protect members the section has been hidden for the time being, so that no one accidentally gets dragged into court because they ran a Bart Tax for someone else.
